Disclosed is a method of measuring thickness or a surface profile of a thin film layer formed on a base layer through a white light scanning interferometry, the method including: preparing simulation interference signals corresponding to thicknesses by assuming a plurality of sample thin film layers different in thickness from one another and simulating interference signals with respect to the respective sample thin film layers; acquiring a real interference signal with respect to an optical-axis direction of entering the thin film layer by illuminating the thin film layer with white light; preparing a plurality of estimated thicknesses that the thin film layer may have on the basis of the real interference signal; comparing whether the simulation interference signal having thickness corresponding to the estimated thickness is substantially matched with the real interference signal; and determining the thickness of the simulation interference signal substantially matched with the real interference signal as the thickness of the thin film layer.
