mavros_msgs

ROS 2 message, service and action interfaces used by MAVROS.

This package defines the MAVLink-facing data types exposed on the ROS 2 graph:

  • msg/ — telemetry and command messages (e.g. State, Imu, Waypoint, GlobalPositionTarget, ParamEvent, …).
  • srv/ — services (e.g. CommandBool, WaypointPush, ParamPull, …).
  • action/ — actions (if any).

Most messages wrap the corresponding MAVLink message fields; see the MAVROS plugin reference for how they map to topics and services.

The generated C++/Python API reference is published on docs.ros.org:

CHANGELOG

Changelog for package mavros_msgs

2.15.0 (2026-08-08)

  • Merge pull request #2259 from mavlink/docs-refresh docs: refresh, refactor extractor

  • docs: refresh subpackage READMEs

    - mavros: point the API docs link at readthedocs/plugin reference instead of the dead wiki.ros.org page; fix ROS1 roslaunch examples to ros2 launch; note that up-to-date install instructions live in the readthedocs guide.

    • mavros_extras: link to the full plugin reference.
    • libmavconn: link to the docs and API reference.
    • mavros_msgs: add the missing README (message/service overview + API links).
    • test_mavros: mark the ROS1-era SITL hand-tests as historical.

  • build: bump cmake_minimum_required to 3.10 CMake (4.0+, as shipped on Lyrical/Rolling) emits a deprecation warning for cmake_minimum_required < 3.10: CMake Deprecation Warning at CMakeLists.txt:1 (cmake_minimum_required): Compatibility with CMake < 3.10 will be removed from a future version of CMake. Raise the floor to 3.10 for all packages that were below it:

    • libmavconn, mavros, mavros_msgs, mavros_extras: 3.5 -> 3.10
    • test_mavros: 2.8.3 -> 3.10

    - mavros_examples: 3.8 -> 3.10 3.10 is the lowest version that silences the warning while remaining compatible with all supported ROS 2 distros (Humble ships CMake 3.22).

  • Merge pull request #2242 from mavlink/followup-terrain-protocol extras: polish terrain protocol integration (PR #2137 followup)

  • extras: polish terrain protocol integration (PR #2137 followup) Address review comments on merged PR #2137:

    - Consolidate terrain Python files into terrain_server/ subpackage with single CLI entrypoint (nodeupdate|validate)

    • Use mavros.base.BaseNode for topic namespacing (mavros-py integration)

    - Replace zlib/hex blob with raw srtm_continent_map.bin resource file loaded via importlib.resources (no compression, auditable)

    - Switch TerrainData/TerrainRequest to float64 latitude/longitude matching TerrainReport/TerrainCheck (ROS convention)

    • Dedupe doxy blocks in terrain.cpp, add cmath for std::lround

    - Add proxy support (HTTP/HTTPS) and scheme-configurable srtm_data_url for Squid/nginx cache deployments

    - Fix concurrency bug: move tile downloads to background ThreadPoolExecutor so the 5Hz timer callback is never blocked

    • Add strict .hgt size validation after extraction
    • Add click-based CLI with preload/update/validate cache subcommands
    • Revert apm.launch to clean state, create apm_with_terrain.launch

    - Update AGENTS.md: always cd /ws before colcon, don't use --base-paths Co-authored-by: Zeke Sarosi <<zeke.sarosi@gmail.com>>

  • Merge pull request #2137 from zekesarosi/ros2 TERRAIN Protocol Integration

  • added tests, removed deps. incorportated suggestions

  • rework

  • docs: correct some more typos and spelling erorors

  • docs: fix some spelling errors

  • Contributors: Vladimir Ermakov, Zeke Sarosi

2.14.0 (2025-12-23)

2.13.0 (2025-12-12)

  • update packages to format 3

  • regenerate all with cogall.sh, apply ament_uncrustify

  • fixes #2070: adding support for OBSTACLE_DISTANCE_3D message (#2071)

mavros_msgs

ROS 2 message, service and action interfaces used by MAVROS.

This package defines the MAVLink-facing data types exposed on the ROS 2 graph:

  • msg/ — telemetry and command messages (e.g. State, Imu, Waypoint, GlobalPositionTarget, ParamEvent, …).
  • srv/ — services (e.g. CommandBool, WaypointPush, ParamPull, …).
  • action/ — actions (if any).

Most messages wrap the corresponding MAVLink message fields; see the MAVROS plugin reference for how they map to topics and services.

  • build: bump cmake_minimum_required to 3.10 CMake (4.0+, as shipped on Lyrical/Rolling) emits a deprecation warning for cmake_minimum_required < 3.10: CMake Deprecation Warning at CMakeLists.txt:1 (cmake_minimum_required): Compatibility with CMake < 3.10 will be removed from a future version of CMake.

mavros_msgs

ROS 2 message, service and action interfaces used by MAVROS.

This package defines the MAVLink-facing data types exposed on the ROS 2 graph:

  • msg/ — telemetry and command messages (e.g. State, Imu, Waypoint, GlobalPositionTarget, ParamEvent, …).
  • srv/ — services (e.g. CommandBool, WaypointPush, ParamPull, …).
  • action/ — actions (if any).

Most messages wrap the corresponding MAVLink message fields; see the MAVROS plugin reference for how they map to topics and services.

Message / service reference

The generated C++/Python API reference is published on docs.ros.org:
