NAME

       ros-map-yaml2mrpt - Convert a ROS map_server .yaml file into MRPT gridmaps

SYNOPSIS

       ros-map-yaml2mrpt  [--generate-3d] [-q] [-w] [-d <.>] -i <map.yaml> [--]
                          [--version] [-h]

USAGE EXAMPLES

       Convert a ROS yaml file into an MRPT .gridmap file in the same directory

       ros-map-yaml2mrpt -i map.yaml

       Convert it, and also generate a .3Dscene file for quick inspection

       ros-map-yaml2mrpt -i map.png --generate-3d

DESCRIPTION

       ros-map-yaml2mrpt is a command-line application to convert a yaml file and an image file
       (following ROS1 map_server YAML file format) into an MRPT `.gridmap.gz` file. A
       `.gridmap.gz` file is just a gz-compressed file containing the serialization of an object
       of type `mrpt::maps::COccupancyGridMap2D`.

       USAGE:

          ros-map-yaml2mrpt  [--generate-3d] [-q] [-w] [-d <.>] -i <map.yaml> [--]
                             [--version] [-h]

       Where:

          --generate-3d
            Create a .3Dscene view of the gridmap, suitable for quick
            visualization in the SceneViewer3D program.

          -q,  --quiet
            Do not print info messages to cout, only errors to cerr

          -w,  --overwrite
            Force overwrite target file without prompting.

          -d <.>,  --output-directory <.>
            If provided, output files will be written to the specified directory,
            instead of the same directory of the input file, which is the default
            behavior. The output directory must exist, it will not be created.

          -i <map.yaml>,  --input <map.yaml>
            (required)  Input map yaml file (required) (*.yaml)

          --,  --ignore_rest
            Ignores the rest of the labeled arguments following this flag.

          --version
            Displays version information and exits.

          -h,  --help
            Displays usage information and exits.
