The digital elevation model (DEM) based on synthetic aperture radar interferometry (SAR, InSAR) technology have become an important data source for large-scale topographic mapping, but their characteristics vary with satellite systems and methodologies. In this paper, we conduct the cross-validation for the first time to compare the LuTan-1 raw DEM (LT-1 RDEM) and GaoFen-7 (GF-7) satellite laser altimetry data. Besides, we compared the penetration capabilities of SAR satellites including C-band SRTM and X-band TanDEM-X. The optically derived ZiYuan-3 (ZY-3) DEM was also included for multi-source cross-validation. Taking Guyuan County, Hebei Province, China (including four landform types: plains, tablelands, hills, and mountains) as the study area, we introduced GF-7 laser altimetry points (LAPs) as the verification benchmark to cross-validate the elevation accuracy of LT-1 RDEM, SRTM, TanDEM-X DEM (TanDEM), and ZY-3 DEM. The results indicate that: (1) Topographic relief has a significant impact on accuracy, and the RMSE of the DEMs in the study area generally increases sequentially with the intensification of topographic relief; (2) Benefiting from the 10-meter spatial resolution, LT-1 RDEM performs best in detail representation; (3) In terms of mean height error, LT-1 RDEM exhibits a general negative bias, confirming the stronger penetration capability of the L-band, and its elevation values may be closer to the true ground surface; (4) The RMSE of LT-1 RDEM in the study area is 1.958m, slightly larger than TanDEM’s 1.65m, but in fact, the accuracy of TanDEM as a digital surface model (DSM) may be systematically overestimated by laser altimetry data.
