Allow direct integration of GPS data #377

where can see this part of code in ros_filter.cpp? |
It doesn't exist yet. It's a feature idea. |
Is this feature already implemented? Or do you still need help? |
No, that's not what I had intended. The original intent with the package was based on the suggestions of OSRF for how to make a ROS package, namely, that you make the ROS-agnostic core to the package, and then wrap that in ROS interfaces. Back when I wrote the package initially, it was for a government contract in the US, and funding and time were tight, so it was pretty simple, and the So, to answer your question, I don't see having a Part of the reason that this package doesn't see a lot of activity is that we're trying to move to the https://github.com/locusrobotics/fuse There's still a lot of work to do to make it usable and give it feature parity with |
Thanks @ayrton04 for your feedback! |
Hey @ayrton04, how do you really imagine

Right now, the process for integrating GPS data is, admittedly, a bit convoluted. While the circular dependency between the filter nodes and
navsat_transform_node
is necessary, it creates unnecessary confusion for users. This complex interaction between the nodes could be greatly simplified by just allowing the filters to work with the GPS data directly.To that end, I propose that we add a
gps
sensor input type to the filters, e.g.,We can then move many of the
navsat_transform_node
parameters into the filter node configuration.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
