This is exactly what was done in the 1880s by William Matthew Flinders Petrie. His work has become the defacto standard of Giza surveys. More recently, Jean-Pierre Houdin modeled the Great Pyramid to test various construction theories. As far as I know, neither of these scholarly works describe such anomalies.
Quote from Peter Tompkins’ “Secrets of the Great Pyramid”:
Sir Flinders Petrie noted a distinct hollowing of the core masonry in the central portion of each face of the Pyramid. Though the hollowing amounts to as much as 37 inches on the north face, it is not directly observable unless special lines of sight are taken. Petrie found no evidence of hollowing along the lower-level casing stones, running along the base of the Pyramid, which have now been completely uncovered.
A recent survey by two Italian scholars, Maragioglio and Rinaldi, indicates the casing stones above the base line may have been slightly sloped toward a central line.

There is no doubt that the faces of the Great Pyramid are concave. André Pochan only noted the flash phenomenon.
The fact that the angle of hollowing approximately equals the diameter of the sun and moon, probably indicates a method devised to signal the exact moment that the center of the sun was located on the plane of the Pyramid’s side.
