Well according to the documentation velodyne_node captures Velodyne 3D LIDAR data and publishes it in raw form. This uses the same device driver class as velodyne_driver/DriverNodelet.
I guess you have been looking at this answer. Looks like the next thing yo need to do is convert the velodyne_msgs/VelodyneScan into sensor_msgs/PointCloud2 by using the CloudNodelet
from velodyne_pointcloud or the cloud_node
.
