PALoc generates reference trajectories by combining a prior map with LiDAR–inertial odometry in a factor graph. It checks map-match constraints for degeneracy and adds no-motion and gravity factors. On MCR_normal_00, removing the degeneracy-aware map factor increased ATE from 5.00 to 9.61 cm, but this is one sequence and PALoc still requires a prior map.
