Abstract
This paper describes a three-dimensional mapping method to allow the operation of mobile robots in outdoor environments using 2D laser range finders (LRF). Experimental tests demonstrate the accuracy of the presented techniques, allowing for precise models of the environments traversed by the robot. This work also presents preliminary results of terrain classification according to its navigability.
