description: "\n\nnavfn provides a fast interpolated navigation function that can\
  \ be used to create plans for a mobile base. The planner assumes a circular robot\
  \ and operates on a costmap to find a minimum cost plan from a start point to an\
  \ end point in a grid. The navigation function is computed with Dijkstra's algorithm,\
  \ but support for an A* heuristic may also be added in the near future. navfn also\
  \ provides a ROS wrapper for the navfn planner that adheres to the nav_core::BaseGlobalPlanner\
  \ interface specified in <a href=\"http://ros.org/wiki/nav_core\">nav_core</a>.\n\
