The autoware_ground_segmentation is a node that remove the ground points from the input pointcloud.
Detail description of each ground segmentation algorithm is in the following links.
| Filter Name | Description | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| ray_ground_filter | A method of removing the ground based on the geometrical relationship between points lined up on radiation | link |
| scan_ground_filter | Almost the same method as ray_ground_filter, but with slightly improved performance |
link |
| ransac_ground_filter | A method of removing the ground by approximating the ground to a plane | link |

autoware::pointcloud_preprocessor::Filter is implemented based on pcl_perception [1] because of this issue.
