For mapping, what should i do after connecting to the laser?
Hi everyone!
It's my first question and i'm so new to ROS (and even Linux :/ ) Anyway i tried to create a map with laser scanner, Sick LMS100. I installed lms1xx drivers, and i wrote the code "rosrun lms1xx LMS1xx_node" then it said It connected to laser...So connection is ok but I dont know what to do next? What are my options for creating a simple map or something like floor plan?
By the way, right now i dont have a robot, just the laser scanner.

You should probably start with a simpler topic. Mapping is a rather advanced task in robotics and not the first thing you should try if you have never ROS or Linux. Have you already done the tutorials?
I'm doing the tutorials as well, but i have to do something like basic mapping, floor plan etc as soon as possible :/
