robot_localization with cartographer and amcl

edit

I am using cartographer_ros along with amcl and an imu and wheel odometry for localization. Robot_localization seems ideal for this. I modified the sources for cartographer and amcl so that they publish poses and do not broadcast transforms. I used the following robot_localization setup and it seems to be working well, but I am not sure it is entirely correct. If someone would be kind enough to look it over, I would sure appreciate that. I am particularly interested to know whether I set the frame ID and child frames correctly for the inputs from amcl and cartographer (frame ID = map, child ID = base_footprint). I am also interested to know if the second instance should be fed any of the continuous data. Right now it just gets data from amcl and cartographer.

robot_localization ukf instance 1, continuous inputs, 2D mode is true, neither of the inputs is set to differential.

  <param name="map_frame" value="map"/> 
  <param name="odom_frame" value="odom"/>
  <param name="base_link_frame" value="base_footprint"/>
  <param name="world_frame" value="odom"/>

odom0 is from the wheel encoders, reporting vx and vYaw (vy = 0), 2D mode, with frame id= odom, child frame is base_footprint

  <rosparam param="odom0_config">[false, false, false, <!-- x, y, z position -->
                                  false, false, false, <!-- roll, pitch, yaw angles -->
                                  true,  true, false, <!-- vx, vy, vz -->
                                  false, false, true, <!--roll, pitch, yaw velocities-->
                                  false, false, false]</rosparam>

imu0 is from the IMU, reporting vYaw, frame ID is imu_link

  <rosparam param="imu0_config">
                                  [false, false, false, 
                                  true, true, true, <!-- these are absolutes that are calibrated, not just integrated velocities -->
                                  false,  false, false, 
                                  true, true, true, <!-- roll, pitch, yaw velocities -->
                                  true, false, false]</rosparam>

robot_localization ukf instance 2 brings in amcl and cartographer (and eventually GPS)

  <param name="map_frame" value="map"/> 
  <param name="odom_frame" value="odom"/>
  <param name="base_link_frame" value="base_footprint"/>
  <param name="world_frame" value="map"/>

pose0 is from amcl, with a frame ID = map, it is set to differential.

  <rosparam param="pose0_config">
                                  [true, true, false, <!-- x, y, z position -->
                                  true, true, true, <!-- roll, pitch, yaw angles -->
                                  false,  false, false, <!-- vx, vy, vz -->
                                  false, false, false, 
                                  false, false, false]</rosparam>

odom0 is from cartographer, the frame ID is map, the child is base_footprint

  <rosparam param="odom0_config">
                                  [true, true, false, 
                                  true, true, false, 
                                  false,  false, false, 
                                  false, false, true, 
                                  false, false, false]</rosparam>
