Hi, The default global planner plans outside the static map i.e. unexplored area. Is there any parameter I have missed out?

planner_params.yaml

base_local_planner: dwa_local_planner/DWAPlannerROS
recovery_behaviors: []
planner_frequency: 0
planner_patience: 1000.0
controller_patience: 1000.0
recovery_behavior_enabled: false
clearing_rotation_allowed: false
controller_frequency: 20.0

global_constmap_params.yaml

global_costmap:
  global_frame: /map
  robot_base_frame: base_link
  update_frequency: 1.0
  static_map: true

Unfortunately during mapping, not all parts of the room was bounded by a wall i.e. black color cells in the occupancy map. The planner found a path that goes outside the static map from one end and then into the other side of the room.

It depends on which global planner you're using, but in navfn, the parameter is allow_unknown

I am using navfn and I set it to allow_unknown as false. However, it still plans outside static map. I verified this parameter by printing it in initialize() and also viewing the potential that goes outside the static map.

Ok so when I use track_unknown: true and unknown_cost_value: 255 inside costmap_common.yaml, I can get what I want. If this is a necessary parameter, it must be added to the navigation tutorial

Great! Glad you figured it out.
