For exploration, you don't even need to create a map in advance.
You can launch hector_slam, the hector_exploration_planner, and the hector_exploration_controller. The result will be simultaneous exploration and mapping.
For navigation, you can use your map with the standard ROS navigation stack. See http://wiki.ros.org/navigation/Tutorials
