Open source mapping tools

SLAM is quite complicated to implement and understand, but fortunately, there are plenty of open source solutions that you can use in your self-driving car. The website Awesome Open Source (https://awesomeopensource.com/projects/slam) has a treasure trove of SLAM algorithms that you can use.

Here is a curated selection to whet your appetite:

Cartographer by Google (https://github.com/cartographer-project/cartographer)
LIO-SAM by TixiaoShan (https://github.com/TixiaoShan/LIO-SAM)
LeGO-LOAM by RobustFieldAutonomy (https://github.com/RobustFieldAutonomyLab/LeGO-LOAM)

Since Cartographer is by far the most popular and supported, you will get to play with and experience all it has to offer in the next section.

Korda

Krishtof Korda grew up in a mountainside home over which the US Navy's Blue Angels flew during the Reno Air Races each year. A graduate from the University of Southern California and the USMC Officer Candidate School, he set the Marine Corps obstacle course record of 51 seconds. He took his love of aviation to the USAF, flying aboard the C-5M Super Galaxy as a flight test engineer for 5 years, and engineered installations of airborne experiments for the USAF Test Pilot School for 4 years. Later, he transitioned to designing sensor integrations for autonomous cars at Lyft Level 5. Now he works as an applications engineer for Ouster, integrating LIDAR sensors in the fields of robotics, AVs, drones, and mining, and loves racing Enduro mountain bikes.
