Awesome effort! I am not a SLAM guys at all, but is there such a thing as "Multi-agent SLAM" where multiple sources are building the map simultaneously (or asynchronously)? - ThreadSky

There is multi-session SLAM, the most recent paper that comes to mind is https://arxiv.org/pdf/2404.15263
Hopefully the related work section can point you to other works :)

I'll have a look, thanks for the pointer!

@vlyug.bsky.social and @martin-r-oswald.bsky.social just announced Multi-Agent Gaussian Globally Consistent SLAM, had to think of your post.

Yes i just saw that, will read for sure :) thanks !

Thanks for the reference! We addressed a multi-agent version of dense neural SLAM, but I guess Vincent's question was more general. There is a large body of classical SLAM methods addressing this problem: There are several surveys or see this overview by Andrew Davison: https://youtu.be/OH4NnALUxYQ?si=BlMH2ENUU79Q7Zuw&t=2391

Multi-agent SLAM is definitely a thing -- this should be a good recent work to start with https://web.mit.edu/sparklab/2023/08/25/Kimera-Multi__Robust_Distributed_Dense_Metric-Semantic_SLAM_for_Multi-Robot-Systems.html

And there's also a repo here

Thanks, that looks great!
