OctomapRvizVisualier

A publisher of RVIZ markers for OctoMap visualization. It has some additional features over the original Octomap RVIZ plugin, e.g.:

  • the option to filter the octomap,
  • the option to remove ceiling from the octomap,
  • throttled publishers for saving of power,
  • power saving mode, when nobody subscribes to the markers.

OctomapEditor

An editor for OctoMap. The editor uses RQT Reconfigure as a GUI tool and OctomapRvizVisualizer for real-time preview. The editor provides adjustable bounding box to specify the region for operations.

Supported operations:

  • setting/unsetting free/occupied/unknown space within the bounding box or outside of the bounding box
  • changing of resolution of the octomap
  • creating free space above the ground level
  • dilation and erosion
  • expanding and pruning the tree and the bounding box region (mainly for testing)
  • undo (until your memory runs out)
