  • Abstract
    In this paper, we report a fully automated detailed mapping of a challenging urban environment using single LIDAR. To improve scan matching, extended correlative scan matcher is proposed. Also, a Monte Carlo loop closure detection is implemented to perform place recognition efficiently. Automatic recovery of the pose graph map in the presence of false place recognition is realized through a heuristic based loop closure rejection. This mapping framework is evaluated through experiments on the real world dataset obtained from NUS campus environment.
