costmap

Common Configuration

obstacle_range: 2.5
raytrace_range: 3.0
footprint: [[x0, y0], [x1, y1], ... [xn, yn]]
#robot_radius: ir_of_robot
inflation_radius: 0.55

observation_sources: laser_scan_sensor point_cloud_sensor

laser_scan_sensor: {sensor_frame: frame_name, data_type: LaserScan, topic: topic_name, marking: true, clearing: true}

point_cloud_sensor: {sensor_frame: frame_name, data_type: PointCloud, topic: topic_name, marking: true, clearing: true}

Global Configuration

global_costmap:
  global_frame: /map
  robot_base_frame: base_link
  update_frequency: 5.0
  static_map: true

The "global_frame" parameter defines what coordinate frame the costmap should run in, in this case, we'll choose the /map frame. The "robot_base_frame" parameter defines the coordinate frame the costmap should reference for the base of the robot. The "update_frequency" parameter determines the frequency, in Hz, at which the costmap will run its update loop. The "static_map" parameter determines whether or not the costmap should initialize itself based on a map served by the map_server.

Local Configuration

local_costmap:
  global_frame: odom
  robot_base_frame: base_link
  update_frequency: 5.0
  publish_frequency: 2.0
  static_map: false
  rolling_window: true
  width: 6.0
  height: 6.0
  resolution: 0.05

The "global_frame", "robot_base_frame", "update_frequency", and "static_map" parameters are the same as described in the Global Configuration section above. The "publish_frequency" parameter determines the rate, in Hz, at which the costmap will publish visualization information. Setting the "rolling_window" parameter to true means that the costmap will remain centered around the robot as the robot moves through the world. The "width," "height," and "resolution" parameters set the width (meters), height (meters), and resolution (meters/cell) of the costmap.
