Thanks in advance.

Hi @ytgcljj It looks like the parameters (in the .yaml file) did not load properly. I would recommend that you have a look at the demonstrations page

What you can try to run is: $ roslaunch laser_mapper kitti_localization.launch

thank you rdube
I'm downloading the BAG file and trying again ，The following mistakes are reported

@ytgcljj you cannot solely launch laser_mapper.launch as information will be missing. Take a look at what is inside kitti_localization.launch to see what needs to be launched & loaded. I will look at the other issue mentioned above.

[rdube]

@ytgcljj did you get the demo running with $ roslaunch laser_mapper kitti_localization.launch ?

[ytgcljj]

@rdube i run the demo with $ roslaunch laser_mapper kitti_localization.launch is OK

[ytgcljj]

i run roslaunch laser_mapper.launch。Do you need to turn on the lidar?

[rdube]

@ytgcljj it is not sufficient to launch only laser_mapper.launch. You need to launch either kitti_localization.launch or kitti_loop_closure.launch which will play the bag, load parameters, launch the mapper and more. See where the mapper is launched here:

https://github.com/ethz-asl/segmatch/blob/master/laser_mapper/launch/kitti/kitti_localization.launch#L35

If this is not clear I would recommend looking into the ros tutorials, particularly the following one, section 2.2:

http://wiki.ros.org/ROS/Tutorials/UsingRqtconsoleRoslaunch

[rdube]

@ytgcljj I will assume that the use of kitti_loop_closure.launch is clear by now and will close this issue.
