Lidar-only odometry aims to estimate the trajectory of a mobile platform from a stream of lidar scans. Traditional scan-to map approaches register each scan against a single, evolving map, which propagates registration errors over time. To mitigate this, we propose a multitude-of-maps approach where the current scan is registered against multiple overlapping submaps instead of a single static map. By optimizing the resulting constraints in a pose graph, our method enables not only precise estimation of the current pose but also retrospective refinement of the submaps' anchor points, which improves short-term consistency and long-term accuracy. We demonstrate that our approach achieves competitive and often superior accuracy on a variety of automotive datasets while maintaining real-time performance. Ablation studies confirm the critical role of multiple registrations and retrospective refinement of the map as core factors for our accuracy gains.
