PAL Map Masks provides a simple, plugin-based way, to create Nav2 Costmap 2D Filters masks that can be used to annotate maps.

This node provides a Server that is capable of loading several plugins implementing different Nav2 Costmap 2D Filters. The standard Nav2 way of annotating maps and creating masks for Costmap 2D Filters is by manually editing them using an Image Editor (ex. Gimp). This node offers an intuitive interface to annotate maps and a plugin-based interface to create new type of masks for different Costmap Filters. Examples of marking/annotations include:
