Currently, I’m trying to fuse simulated gazebo GPS and IMU data to get localization to use with navigation stack I've tested the move_base with perfect odometry given by Gazebo skid steering plugin and there's no problem with that But when I'm using the fused data from robot_localization my odom and map frame drifts constantly when the robot moves, making it impossible for the planner to make decisions.

Here's a short video with the demonstration:

https://youtu.be/EZv2GhAg0SU

Here's the launch file used for localization:

<launch>

  <rosparam command="load" file="$(find my_robot_localization)/params/my_localization_params.yaml" />

  <node pkg="robot_localization" type="ukf_localization_node" name="ukf_se_odom" clear_params="true"/>

  <node pkg="robot_localization" type="ukf_localization_node" name="ukf_se_map" clear_params="true">
    <remap from="odometry/filtered" to="odometry/filtered_map"/>
  </node>

  <node pkg="robot_localization" type="navsat_transform_node" name="navsat_transform" clear_params="true">
    <remap from="odometry/filtered" to="odometry/filtered_map"/>
  </node>

</launch>

Can you try without fusing acceleration data? Edit: Does your robot have no wheel odometry?

I guess you should fuse all the in one robot_localization node although it is hard to understand from the video. Next time, you may paste warnings from terminal or log file.

The problem can be related with your param files when you declare world_frame different. I think setting world_frame as "odom" solves it. Additionally, trying to fuse more variables if applicable.

I'm getting the same problem when I fuse it all in the same node Tried with the world frame set to odom as well, doesn't change it
