Testing Mapping algorithm at scale with AWS RoboMaker Worldforge

This sample application shows an example of a mapping algorithm and how we can test such an algorithm at scale using 3D Gazebo worlds generated by Worldforge feature. The application is written for ROS eco-system and has been tested on Ubuntu 18.04 system.

It leverages the explore_lite, gmapping, navigation, and turtlebot3 , s3_file_uploader rospackages.
