0.2.0 (2015-02-22)

• added QUIET flag when finding optional hector_timing
• immediately reset the gps measurement when fix is lost
• disabled publish_world_nav_transform parameter by default and added deprecation warnings for publish_world_map_transform and map_frame
• fixed sensor_pose correction if reference heading != 0
• added new publisher /geopose with type geographic_msgs/GeoPose
• instrumented code for timing measurements using hector_diagnostics See https://github.com/tu-darmstadt-ros-pkg/hector_diagnostics/tree/master/hector_timing.
• added raw, unfiltered sensor pose publisher This is for debugging purposes only. The raw sensor pose combines the information from IMU acceleration/gravity, magnetic, GPS and height/barometric pressure sensors.
• added world to nav transform broadcaster and global/reference (geographic_msgs/GeoPose) publisher
• Added missing orientation-orientation derivative in GenericQuaternionSystemModel
• Readded dimension paramters to SystemModel templates
• Readded class BaseState and State::base() accessors (currently unused)
• Added typed getters PoseEstimation::getSystem_<T>(name) and PoseEstimation::getMeasurement_<T>(name)
• IMU-based prediction is now in the GenericQuaternionSystemModel class again. The accelerometer and gyro models are added automatically if GenericQuaternionSystemModel::init() found an IMU input. GenericQuaternionSystemModel calls methods on the IMU model classes to get the errors, derivatives and noise. The IMU models themselves do not add
• Added class SkewSymmetricMatrix
• Avoid calling SymmetricMatrix::symmetric() as, surprisingly, this method seems to be quite expensive. Symmetry is only enforced if assigned from a matrix which is not a SymmetricMatrix.
• Added Eigen optimizations (avoid copies and added alignment macros)
• Moved system and measurement status management from class Filter to PoseEstimation
• first functional version with multiplicative EKF
• added support for dynamic states (full, orientation only, position/velocity only, ...)

0.1.5 (2014-10-02)

• hector_pose_estimation: make private variables protected to allow access from specialized pose_estimation classes
• hector_pose_estimation: fixed wrong indicies bug in GPS pose publisher
• Contributors: Johannes Meyer

0.1.4 (2014-08-28)

0.1.3 (2014-07-09)

0.1.2 (2014-06-02)

0.1.1 (2014-03-30)

• Fixed boost 1.53 issues changed boost::shared_dynamic_cast to boost::dynamic_pointer_cast and boost::shared_static_cast to boost::static_pointer_cast
• readded tf_prefix support (was removed from tf::TransformBroadcaster in hydro)
• hector_pose_estimation/rtt_hector_pose_estimation: removed optional usage of package hector_uav_msgs and created a separate package hector_quadrotor_pose_estimation instead
• fixed unresolved symbols when loading the nodelet, renamed plugin description xml file
• Contributors: Christopher Hrabia, Johannes Meyer

0.1.0 (2013-09-03)

• catkinized stack hector_localization
