Cartographer

Cartographer is a system that provides real-time simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) in 2D and 3D across multiple platforms and sensor configurations.

Technical Overview

• High level system overview of Cartographer

Getting started

Cartographer is a standalone C++ library. To get started quickly, use our ROS integration.

Getting started with ROS

ROS integration is provided by the Cartographer ROS repository. You will find complete documentation for using Cartographer with ROS at the Cartographer ROS Read the Docs site.

Getting started without ROS

Please see our ROS integration as a starting point for integrating your system with the standalone library. Currently, it is the best available reference.

On Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty):

# Install the required libraries that are available as debs.
sudo apt-get update

# Install CMake 3.2 for Ubuntu Trusty and Debian Jessie.
sudo apt-get install lsb-release -y
if [[ "$(lsb_release -sc)" = "trusty" ]]
then
  sudo apt-get install cmake3 -y
elif [[ "$(lsb_release -sc)" = "jessie" ]]
then
  sudo sh -c "echo 'deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list"
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get -t jessie-backports install cmake -y
else
  sudo apt-get install cmake -y
fi

System Requirements

Although Cartographer may run on other systems, it is confirmed to be working on systems that meet the following requirements:

• 64-bit, modern CPU (e.g. 3rd generation i7)
• 16 GB RAM
• Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty) and 16.04 (Xenial)
• gcc version 4.8.4 and 5.4.0

Known Issues

• 32-bit builds have libeigen alignment problems which cause crashes and/or memory corruptions.
