Hello! I'm new to ROS and I'm trying to build a map with Husky robot. I've mounted on it a laserscan (modifying the URDF). When I try to visualize the map on rviz, it builds a wrong map. The odom frame is also moving. I'm using ubuntu 12.04 lts and ros hydro.

Could you expand on what you mean by "wrong map"? When you mean "odom frame is moving", with respect to what? What have you set as your fixed frame in rviz? (it should be /map)

If i set odom as a fixed frame and starting creating a map with gmapping, odom is moving respect of map. In particular, if I load the husky in a empty world, map is moving a little in respect of odom; instead, if I add any object the distance between the two frames changes a lot! (laserscan fault?)
