The CameraInfo contents are described in the image_pipeline wiki.
The rectification is used in stereo cameras to transform the image planes of a pair of cameras such that the epipolar lines become parallel. The parameters may be computed by the same calibration node, passing a stereo pair instead of a single camera.
When calibrating a monocular camera, as in your case, the rectification is the identity.
