Elevated point cloud map not working

Hi all.

After various attempts of different setup, I am still unable to produce a elevated point cloud map from ASUS camera and hectorelevationmapping.

To be clear, the elevated mapping is the one is this video (I assume, since there are point clouds): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKI378kadp8

Awesome work by Team Hector Darmstadt.

Unfortunately, after almost 3 weeks of researching and setting up, I'm not even close to that. Currently, my progress is: elevation marker array.png

Basically, the camera gives out depth/points images and there are cells filling up the area.

My rqt_graph: before elevation works.png

My rqttftree: /map-->/basefootprint-->/basestabilized-->/baselink-->/laser and /cameralink

Can anyone confirm whether my setting up is correct, based on the rqtgraph and rqttf_tree?

I'm stuck in the same stage for a week already. This is a new project by my teacher, which he hasn't try himself before either. So I will be really glad if someone can provide some advice for me.

Thank you!
