Lat & long to ECEF coordinates using geodetic_utils
Hello I am new to ROS. I want to convert lat & long to ECEF coordinates and further convert them to NED coordinates. For doing so, I am using geodetic_utils. It has two executable files
setgpsreferencenode gpstoposeconversion_node
I am using hectorgazeboplugins for getting the gps data using
gazeborosgps
But I am unable to do so and getting error
[rosrun] Couldn't find executable named gazeborosgps below /home/pallav/catkinws1/src/hectorgazebo_plugins
I have tried everything. Please help!

Actually to run geodetic_utils, I need gps coordinates. For that I need to use hector_gazebo_plugins and use the file gazebo_ros_gps which I am unable to do. It has a topic which publishes fix (sensor_msgs/NavSatFix) which I need.
