A system includes a transporter robot with a motion controller that changes the transporter robot's poses during transportation. A scanning device is fixed to the transporter robot. One or more processors are coupled to the transporter robot and the scanning device to generate a map of the surrounding environment. At a timepoint T1, when the transporter robot is stationary at a first location, a first pose of the transporter robot is captured. During transporting the scanning device, at a timepoint T2, the scanning device captures additional scan-data of a portion of the surrounding environment. In response, the motion controller provides a second pose of the transporter robot at T2. A compensation vector and a rotation for the scan-data are determined based on a difference between the first pose and the second pose. A revised scan-data is computed, and the revised scan-data is registered to generate the map.
