What's the standard convention for transforming a sensor_msgs/Range measurement into the attached robot's base_link frame, given the location of the sensor on the robot. I can plop it into the Z field of a Vector3 and transform accordingly, but I was wondering if there was a more standard way.

I think the standard convention for frames coordinate (applied for all type of messages) is REP-105 and REP-103. Or you can follow the hector_slam tutorial.
