Hello,
i can create map with gmapping and hector_slam. since i dont have a robot system (just laser scanner) i'm just trying to use costmap_2d individually so i created a launch file (based on example.launch in costmap_2d launch directory)
while i was running gmapping (with laser scan matcher), in another terminal i run, "rosrun map_server map_server mymap.yaml" ...then my costmap.launch, didnt gave any error, but in rviz nothing has changed.
what am i missing? Should i add something to rviz to show costmap?
*note: i created launch directory in laser_scan_matcher in the first place so i continue to use that directory for creating new launch and yaml files for my case.
my costmap.launch file:
<launch>
<!-- Publishes the voxel grid to rviz for display -->
<node pkg="costmap_2d" type="costmap_2d_markers" name="voxel_visualizer">
<remap from="voxel_grid" to="costmap/voxel_grid"/>
</node>
<!-- Run the costmap node -->
<node name="costmap_node" pkg="costmap_2d" type="costmap_2d_node" >
<rosparam file="$(find laser_scan_matcher)/launch/myparams.yaml" command="load" ns="costmap" />
</node>
</launch>
