hi

I am using rtabmap as map provider and usin 2 instances of robot-localization pkgs. I am following the procedure in https://github.com/nickcharron/waypoi... . I am using a joystick for collecting gps data points. after coleection, when i send these datapoints as a goal for the move_base, it shows the following warning:

[ WARN] [1634382854.203551843]: Lookup would require extrapolation into the past.  Requested time 1634382854.194341660 but the earliest data is at time 1634382854.599406719, when looking up transform from frame [utm] to frame [odom]

what does it mean? what should i do?

The most common cause of this error is that the time-of-day clocks on two ros nodes are too far apart. In a ros system with multiple hosts, you must enable the network time daemon on every ros host.
