Hi,



I'm using gmapping to create maps. But, it returns a lot of messages 
saying "Scan Matching Failed, using odometry" and the resulting map has 
several overlapped maps.

  
In rviz the laser values seem to be correct. When  I run the rostopic command to see the behavior of base_scan (laser) and odom (odometry) topics, it is possible to verify that the values are correctly published on ROS.

  



. I'm using these parameters in my code for the values on LaserScan:

  

  



scan.angle_min = -1.57;


  
scan.angle_max = 1.57; 

  

  scan.angle_increment = 3.14 / num_readings; 

  

  scan.time_increment = (1 / laser_frequency) / (num_readings); 

  

  scan.range_min = 0.0; 

  

  scan.range_max = 80.0;







  Someone can help me ? Together with this message I attach the resulting .yaml file and the .bag file.

NOTE: Below is presented part of the resulting command line with the error:
