Masonry digital-twin monitoring loop

Problem: A one-time geophysical survey of a dam or cathedral is a snapshot; deterioration is a movie. The military learned this with persistent surveillance — one image is trivia, a time series is intelligence. Heritage and infrastructure owners commission single surveys, then fly blind for decades.

Idea: An Orchestrate workflow that turns one-off geophysical surveys (GPR, microgravity, resistivity) into a monitoring program: baseline survey archived as a digital twin, repeat-survey schedule, automated change detection between epochs, and alert thresholds — the persistent-surveillance concept applied to stone.

Value: Cracks, voids, and water ingress get caught as trends, not as catastrophes. Monuments and dams age under watch.
