Process of Mapping over an already created map​

  • The process is exactly the same, except you start with an already existing map.
  • It is recommended to accurately align the robot on the map in advance using Set position.
info

For the most accurate map creation, it is recommended to drive the robot as close as possible to obstacles and inspect them from all sides. If artifacts appear on the map, you can drive the robot over the same area again.
