TF error in topological roadmap [closed]
I am running topological navigation (Revision: 54057) on ROS Diamondback. On launching move_base_topo_stage.launch in topological_roadmap package, a lot of TF errors similar to following appears:
[ERROR] [1332863239.641246114, 733.000000000]: Lookup would require extrapolation into the past. Requested time 732.100000000 but the earliest data is at time 733.000000000, when looking up transform from frame [/grid6] to frame [/grid42]

what could be the cause of these? What could be solution? Or I can just ignore them (hoping that rejection of grid points will not change the map much!)
Thank you prince
Hmm, do these errors continue throughout the run, or do they only occur near the beginning?
If they appear, these continue throughout the run. Currently I am not able to localize why these do not occur everytime on execution? Sometimes these errors are not reported reported.
OK, please file this as a ticket at https://code.ros.org/trac/wg-ros-pkg.
