Run on custom dataset about suma

Not directly and the range image projection does consider the specific setup of the sensor. You definitely have to adapt the parameters, i.e., the field of view, etc.

However, having only frontal views is not quite optimal as it provides possible very few constraints regarding the map; especially if the sensor is moving fast. (less overlap between map and point cloud)

It's always hard to say something about the behavior if you don't see the data. Do you have a couple of point clouds that I could use for testing?

In the end, it doesn't matter, how the poses are generated. Therefore, for a quick test, I would suggest using our novel LiDAR odometry method (KISS ICP -> https://github.com/PRBonn/kiss-icp); there we don't assume a specific projection but use directly the point cloud. Especially, @nachovizzo puts significant effort into maintaining KISS-ICP and also has a much nicer way to set up the system (just pip install kiss-icp and you're ready to go! :)).

I would really suggest having a try with KISS, as it has fewer assumptions about the point clouds and works often out of the box.

Thank you @jbehley for suggesting KISS-ICP.
I was able to generate correct poses.txt for point_labeler using KISS-ICP. Really appreciate your quick response.
