In this letter, we introduce GroundLoc, a LiDAR-only localization pipeline designed to localize a mobile robot in large-scale outdoor environments using prior maps. GroundLoc employs a Bird's-Eye View (BEV) image projection focusing on the perceived ground area and utilizes the place recognition net
The precise point cloud ground segmentation is a crucial prerequisite of virtually all perception tasks for LiDAR sensors in autonomous vehicles. Especially the clustering and extraction of objects from a point cloud usually relies on an accurate removal of ground points. The correct estimation of t
Localization is a key task for autonomous vehicles. It is often solved with GNSS but due to multipath the performance is often not sufficient. Feature localization systems using LiDAR can deliver an accurate localization but the creation of the necessary feature maps is an effortful task. With digit
