Load map with clearpath ark
Recently we had our Clearpath Ridgeback and Huskies upgraded to have the ARK (Autonomy Research and development Kit) added to it. While the navigation is improved it seems to be missing a vital function. It can not load a map. Does anyone else have this setup and have you found a way around this? I tried rosrun mapserver mapserver p2map.yaml where p2map.yaml is a map property file I exported using rosrun mapserver mapsaver -f. and it never finishes executing. I get the first two normal messages of Loading map from image "p2map.pgm" and Read a 998 x 1270 map @ 0.050 m/cell but it stops and hangs there.
Since this is a clearpath specific product, you should probably contact them.
