I was reading the tutorial on nav_2d at http://wiki.ros.org/nav2d/Tutorials/DistributedMapping.
But, I am confused as in the explained scenario, the first robot gets automatically localized and only for the second robot a particle filter is used for localization.
Please find the screenshot of the paragraph below. Can anyone please help me explain, how is the first robot getting localized here?

Thanks!
