gnss_poser#
Purpose#
The gnss_poser is a node that subscribes gnss sensing messages and calculates vehicle pose with covariance.
This node subscribes to NavSatFix to publish the pose of base_link. The data in NavSatFix represents the antenna's position. Therefore, it performs a coordinate transformation using the tf from base_link to the antenna's position. The frame_id of the antenna's position refers to NavSatFix's header.frame_id.
(Note that header.frame_id in NavSatFix indicates the antenna's frame_id, not the Earth or reference ellipsoid. See also NavSatFix definition.)
If the transformation from base_link to the antenna cannot be obtained, it outputs the pose of the antenna position without performing coordinate transformation.
