demo

demo data(ROS1) by Tier IV
https://data.tier4.jp/rosbag_details/?id=212
To use ros1 rosbag , use rosbags.
The Velodyne VLP-16 was used in this data.

Before running, put bin_tc-2017-10-15-ndmap.pcd into your map directory and
edit the map_path parameter of localization.yaml in the param directory accordingly.
