class mola::HashedVoxelPointCloud

Overview

HashedVoxelPointCloud : a pointcloud stored as a sparse set of cubic voxels, indexed by a hash map. Efficient for storing point clouds, decimating them, and running nearest nearest-neighbor search.

Typedefs

typedef uint64_t global_plain_index_t

collapsed plain unique ID for global indices

Fields

static constexpr static std::size_t SSO_MAX_POINTS_PER_VOXEL = 32

Size of the std::array for the small-size optimization container in each voxel, defining the maximum number of points that can be stored without heap allocation.

Construction

HashedVoxelPointCloud(float voxel_size = 1.00f)

Constructor / default ctor.

Parameters:

voxel_size

Voxel size [meters]

Methods

mrpt::math::TPoint3Df globalIdxToCoord(const global_index3d_t idx) const

returns the coordinate of the voxel “bottom” corner

void setVoxelProperties(float voxel_size)

Reset the main voxel parameters, and clears all current map contents

VoxelData* voxelByGlobalIdxs(const global_index3d_t& idx, bool createIfNew)

returns the voxeldata by global index coordinates, creating it or not if not found depending on createIfNew. Returns nullptr if not found and createIfNew is false

Function defined in the header file so compilers can optimize for literals “createIfNew”

VoxelData* voxelByCoords(const mrpt::math::TPoint3Df& pt, bool createIfNew)

Get a voxeldata by (x,y,z) coordinates, creating the voxel if needed.

void insertPoint(const mrpt::math::TPoint3Df& pt)

Insert one point into the dual voxel map

mrpt::math::TBoundingBoxf boundingBox() const

Computes the bounding box of all the points, or (0,0 ,0,0, 0,0) if there are no points. Results are cached unless the map is somehow modified to avoid repeated calculations.

bool saveToTextFile(const std::string& file) const

Save to a text file. Each line contains “X Y Z” point coordinates. Returns false if any error occured, true elsewere.

std::string asString() const

Returns a short description of the map.

bool isEmpty() const

Returns true if the map is empty

void saveMetricMapRepresentationToFile(const std::string& filNamePrefix) const

This virtual method saves the map to a file “filNamePrefix”+< some_file_extension >, as an image or in any other applicable way (Notice that other methods to save the map may be implemented in classes implementing this virtual interface).

const mrpt::maps::CSimplePointsMap* getAsSimplePointsMap() const

Returns a cached point cloud view of the hash map. Not efficient at all. Only for MOLA->ROS2 bridge.
