What problem does it solve?
Understand ROS 2 map formats and how to interpret YAML metadata paired with grayscale occupancy images, enabling reliable map usage across navigation stacks.
Core Features & Use Cases
- YAML metadata interpretation demonstrates how image, resolution, origin, negate, occupied_thresh, free_thresh, and mode define the map.
- Image encoding guidance explains PGM and PNG formats, the meaning of pixel values, and how to map them to occupancy values in different interpretation modes (trinary, scale, raw).
- Practical workflows include scenarios with SLAM Toolbox serialized maps and map servers for navigation tasks.
Quick Start
Explain how to interpret a ROS 2 map YAML alongside its image and determine the proper occupancy encoding.
