As DRONE focuses on near-surface conditions, the analysis is restricted to the 0 to –5 meter and –5 to –10 meter depth intervals. The corrected predictions from the linear model are then used to estimate EC levels across the entire coastal region.

In the resulting maps, red indicates areas of high EC, while blue represents areas of low EC. Seawater EC is assumed to be 60 mS/cm. These spatial predictions highlight zones of significant seawater intrusion, which provide critical insights for the strategic implementation of MAR.
