How to build with catkin
$ cd ~/catkin_ws/src/
$ git clone https://github.com/laboshinl/loam_velodyne.git
$ cd ~/catkin_ws
$ catkin_make -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
$ source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash
Running
roslaunch loam_velodyne loam_velodyne.launch
In second terminal play sample velodyne data from VLP16 rosbag:
rosbag play ~/Downloads/velodyne.bag
Or read from velodyne VLP16 sample pcap:
roslaunch velodyne_pointcloud VLP16_points.launch pcap:="$HOME/Downloads/velodyne.pcap"
Troubleshooting
multiScanRegistration crashes right after playing bag file
Issues #71 and
#7 address this
problem. The current known solution is to build the same version of PCL that
you have on your system from source, and set the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
accordingly so that catkin can find it. See this
issue
for more details.
