can take a few seconds between updates.
scan_matched_points2 (`sensor_msgs/PointCloud2`_)
Point cloud as it was used for the purpose of scan-to-submap matching.
submap_list (`cartographer_ros_msgs/SubmapList`_)
List of all submaps of all trajectories, containing the pose and latest
version number of each submap.
