EMC doesn't currently have a feature to scan a surface and then modify the meaning of a G-code file. There was some discussion once about a general transform system to map arc-type deviations in axes and non-orthogonality. I don't think any of that was ever implemented as a standard part of EMC. Actually, a kinematics routine that interpolated deviations from a matrix shouldn't be real hard to do. EMC2 already has some scanning cycles that could acquire the grid of Z points. Then, you'd need to have a mechanism to send that matrix to the kinematics for compensation. This might be fairly easy to do, especially for someone who knows the kinematics code (not me).
