Hello!

I have the odom pose.orientation data:

orientation: x: 0.0 y: 0.0 z: -0.00128386864513 w: 0.99999917584

And i want the YAW (Z) data in degree format. How can i transform it to degree?

Thanks for your help! Bence

This is a quaternion. The z component of a quaternion is NOT the yaw. You need to convert this to euler angles or similar. tf::getYaw can do that for you. The angles package has angles::to_degrees to convert the resulting radians to degrees.
