All sweeps recorded up to this point are automatically corrected using the registered sweeps. -Reinitialize the metarooms +Meta-Rooms +==================== + +The Meta-Rooms are created by the `semantic_map semantic_map_node`. To start, run: + +```roslaunch semantic_map semantic_map.launch``` + +For more information check out the `semantic_map` package. + +The dynamic clusters are published on the `/local_metric_map/dynamic_clusters` topic and the Meta-Rooms are published on the `/local_metric_map/metaroom` topic. + +Reinitialize the Meta-Rooms ============================ After the calibration you can re-initialize the metarooms (in general a good idea, as the registration between the sweeps should be better now that the poses have been calibrated). ```rosservice call /local_metric_map/ClearMetaroomService "waypoint_id: - 'WayPointXYZ' initialize: true"``` Set the argument initialize to `true` and provide all the waypoints for which you want to re-initialize the metarooms in the `waypoint_id` list. + +Access invidual dynamic clusters +================================== + +The package `object_manager` allows access to individual dynamic clusters, via a number of services. To start use: + +```rosrun object_manager object_manager_node``` + +For more information check out the `object_manager` package. + +semantic_map_publisher +================================== + +The package `semantic_map_publisher` provides a number of services for accessing previously collected data which is stored on the disk.
