3D Meshes Exported from Google Maps Data
- We followed the steps outlined in the tutorial video to export a 3D mesh from Google Maps. Therefore, we can reconstruct some outdoor environment by using some tools, such as RenderDoc, Blender, and MeshLab, and here is one example.
- Mesh data can be converted into navigation mesh (NavMesh).
- It is possible to apply some pathfinding techniques to NavMesh. In this video, for instance, we simulate navigation around the Taipower Building using A* replanning in the ROS environment.
