Quick Start • Quick Example • Plugins • Contributing
Quick Start
Binaries
terminal
$ apt-get install ros-melodic-distance-map
From source
terminal
$ git clone https://github.com/artivis/distance_map.git
$ catkin build distance_map
Quick Example
Once all distance_map packages are built, one can run an example as follows,
terminal
roslaunch distance_map_node example.launch
This command will :
- start a map_server providing a simple map
- start the distance_map node
- start rviz
- start an interactive marker to introspect the distance_map
You should see the following window,

Plugins
Available plugins:
- distancemapopencv A plugin for OpenCV distance map
- distancemapdeadreck A plugin for the Dead Reckoning Distance Map
Under development plugins:
- None at this time.
Contributing
distance_map is developed according to Vincent Driessen's
Gitflow Workflow.
This means,
- the master branch is for releases only.
- development is done on feature branches.
- finished features are integrated via PullRequests into the branch devel.
For a PullRequest to get merged into devel, it must pass
- Review by one of the maintainers.
+ Are the changes introduced in scope of distance_map?
+ Is the documentation updated?
+ Are enough reasonable tests added?
+ Will these changes break the API?
+ Do the new changes follow the current style of naming?
- Compile / Test / Run on all target environments.
