Rviz file ROS2 Navigation Advanced

[lfernandez]

Hi everyone
I’m starting the ROS2 Navigation Advanced course. The Rviz config files that are supported in the repo don’t load the map…I don’t know what rviz file should I use.
Thanks in advance

Hello @lfernandez ,

Could you please provide some more details on this? What unit are you working on? What exercise/section? Are you getting any kind of error?

Thanks in advance,

Hello @albertoezquerro
I’m working on the frist unit. I don’t know where is the rviz config file I should use.
I’ve tried with the ones included in ~/ros2_ws/src/nav2_pkgs/path_planner_server/rviz_config

Thanks again

Hello @lfernandez ,

The Rviz config file is loaded automatically. The steps to follow are:

1. Download the repo:

cd ~/ros2_ws/src
git clone https://bitbucket.org/theconstructcore/nav2_pkgs.git

2. Compile your workspace:

cd ~/ros2_ws/
colcon build
source install/setup.bash

3. Launch Nav2:
   ros2 launch path_planner_server navigation.launch.py

RViz2 will be loaded automatically and you should get something like this:
