Can elevation mapping be used for a flat terrain indoor environment as well? #243

Hello, I am new to elevation mapping, and i found it very interesting to use for mapping with obstacles around the path. I would like to use this on an industrial shop floor environment which is a flat terrain but with obstacles on the way. Can this map be generated from any other localisation algorithm as well?

I also checked out the grid map library and I was wondering if this is a library to be used along with elevation mapping or if it can be used directly as a mapping library to get maps direcly from camera pointclouds. Just a little confused with both of these.

Regards, Aishwarya

Figured it out and already tested. Thanks!
