Hi all,

I was wondering if it is possible to localize where the mobile robot is located only by using Lidar information.
I successfully created a map and saved in in a .db file. Later, using localization mode ("Mem/IncrementalMemory"="false") and setting RGBD/SavedLocalizationIgnored parameter to true I'm still not able to localize where I am if I set the robot in a different location that the latest one.

It would be great if you could help me with this issue.
Thanks in advance
