What are you planning to do with it? There are separate branches for different Velodyne models.

You might want to ask the author (Ji Zhang) why he removed the repository from his account.

In any case: a search on GitHub revealed that daobilige-su/loam_velodyne is apparently a fork of a fork of Ji Zhang's repository:

This is a LOAM (Lidar Odometry and Mapping) ROS package for Velodyne VLP-16 3D laser scanner. This package is a simple modified copy of loam_velodyne git repository from laboshinl, which is again a modified copy of the original one release by Ji Zhang.

He removed it because he started a company with it ( http://www.kaarta.com/ ).

That's unfortunate then.

It does appear that the code was originally already BSD licensed, so no problem in continuing to use the forks then.

But @milyasmeo: the licensing aspect would be something for you to check.
