Similar to https://answers.ros.org/question/1720... I got this warning from move_base:

When checking the the topic in question though, it was arriving at high frequency. I've solved the issue now, and will post my answer, and since it is different from the above, I think it is useful to capture it here.

The costmap is not used for localization anyways. So you don't need to worry about this.

2021-05-19 10:34:09 -0500 marked best answer RTAB-Map: Merge local grid maps of multi-session mapping

We have a large facility I want to map in stages. I've already created a decent map of a large portion of the facility but need to add additional rooms/corridors. I am able to continue mapping by starting on the existing map in localization mode, going to where I want to extend the map, setting rtabmap to mapping mode, and then going into the unknown (as recommended for multi-session mapping). This works but after a little while the occupancy grid map published on /rtabmap/grid_map is replaced by a new map that only shows the newly explored area. I understand from reading in the rtabmap forum that this is expected, and that the old map may reappear on that topic when the robot is back in that old area and a loop closure is detected. But I still need the complete map for navigation.

Is there a way to ask rtabmap to publish the global, merged 2D map during localization mode? Alternatively, is there a way to export the merged 2D map? I figured out how to export each individual map using rtabmap-databaseViewer (select the right node in the graph view (this step wasn't obvious) > Regenerate optimized 2D map > Export optimized 2D map). So that's a starts, but these maps come without a yaml file containing the origin, so it's not clear how to align them for manual merging.

Are you aware of webviz and foxglove studio? Sounds like what you are planning to build is very similar.
