Good reference on how to add GPS and why we need an IMU with a compass: https://answers.ros.org/question/202117/integrate-a-gps-sensor-with-robot_localization-and-use-move_base-node/

To get a general idea of why we want to do this: https://commons.trincoll.edu/trinityrobotics/basic-odometry-and-localization/

Here is an example config file for using robot_localization ekf_localization_nodes for both local odometry and fusing navsat_transform_node output to get absolute odometry info: https://github.com/cra-ros-pkg/robot_localization/blob/melodic-devel/params/dual_ekf_navsat_example.yaml#L86
