Muography, traditionally recognized as a potent instrument for imaging the internal structure of gigantic objects, has initialized various interdisciplinary applications. As the financial and labor costs of muography detector development hinder their massive applications, we develop a novel muon detector called MuGrid by coupling a monolithic plastic scintillator with the light guide array in order to achieve competitive spatial resolution while substantially reducing production costs. For a prototype detector in 30 cm $\times$ 30 cm, the intrinsic spatial resolution has been optimized toward a millimeter scale. An outdoor field muography experiment was conducted to monitor two buildings for validation purposes. The test successfully resolved the geometric influence of architectural features based on the attenuation of muon flux in a good agreement between experimental results and the simulation prediction.
