Documentation
Installation
Either use the pre-built .deb-packages available in the ROS Ubuntu repository, or compile from source. For just installing octomap as a stand-alone library, run
sudo apt-get install ros-fuerte-octomap
To install octomap, ROS integration, and octomap_server run
sudo apt-get install ros-fuerte-octomap ros-fuerte-octomap-mapping
To compile this stack from source you need to checkout the code (trunk or a tagged release), add the source directory to your ROS_PACKAGE_PATH (e.g. in ~/.bashrc), source that file and run
rosdep install octomap_mapping rosmake octomap_mapping
That will download and compile the octomap sourcecode, and compile all octomap-related ROS packages.
For more documentation, see the documentation of the packages in this stack, in particular octomap and octomap_server, or the OctoMap library at http://octomap.sourceforge.net/.
