Geophysical monitoring is a new trend in applied geophysics studying the impact of ground waters on foundations of modern buildings. Here we show that recording variation of physical fields associated with ground water dynamics is a highly efficient tool for understanding the impact of ground and industrial waters on architectural monuments. This new methodology was first tested by the author on the territory of the Kazan Kremlin to determine the nature of geological processes that influence building foundations in this architectural ensemble. The method enables revealing the effects both near and directly underneath buildings and fortifications. It also facilitates determination of the impact of modern tectonic movements on buildings and other structures, allows tracing the bottom of the anthropogenic layer and predicts location of the remains of ancient buildings in the anthropogenic layer. The results of geophysical work carried out on the territory of the Kazan Mother of God Monastery revealed the location of the eastern apse of the cathedral, confirmed by archaeological excavations.
