I also wanted to add that I do get data on the topics: /global_position/raw/fix /global_position/raw/gps_vel /global_position/local /global_position/global
I don't get data on topics: /global_position/home
The data you want is available on mavros/global_position/global
topic. You will get data on mavros/global_position/home
initially, when the autopilot sets the home position.

Issue details
I'm looking to obtain the LLA home position in order to compute local NED/ENU coordinates for a ground target whose latitude and longitude is known. I thought that this data would be available on the topic /mavros/global_position/home after getting a gps fix, and/or after arming the vehicle. Thus far no data appears on that topic. I've tried connecting to mavros over the USB port, and also through telem2. In both cases mavros fires up without problems, and state, IMU, local_position, etc. is published, but no global_position/home data.
