Thanks for the reply; we don't have any odometry source but have a laser scanner, so I configured rtabmap with the suggested settings.

The laser scanner seems to work; at least Hector SLAM created 2D map successfully.  However, nothing is shown in Rivz when I started rtabmap.  The voxel clouds were shown only when I ran rgbd_odometry; moreover, I couldn't see assembled clouds published by map_assembler when I ran it.  How do you think I can fix it?

Our purpose is to have point cloud (.ply file) of the environment, by the way.
