Depends a lot on what you mean by "site survey" though.
The photogrammetry used there also created a depth map from the stereography where images overlap:

You can see in the bottom right corner of that the elevation changes for the roundabout and the ~120mm high curbs at the edges of the roads - and the gradual slope of the whole site towards the top right corner. (There's a lot more detail and calibration data than that image shows in the full data set there.)
