Show wlan access info in Marble Maps on Android

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:internet_access

Welcome to Marble, a virtual globe and world atlas that runs on Linux, Windows, MacOS and Android. Find your way and explore the world! :-)

Please complete the task "Setup a Marble dev environment for Android" as a prerequisite to this task.

Marble Maps on Android provides information about places when tapping on them. They show up in a dialog at the bottom of the screen. This task is about extending that information to show the availability of wifi at restaurants/hotels etc.: Read http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:internet_access and find the best possible solution to show the availability of wlan access. Prepend the info using src/apps/marble-maps/material-icons/ic_network_wifi_black_48px.svg

Tip: Enter "ok marble" into the search field and press Enter. In the dialog at the bottom check "OSM Tags". Next tap on places and watch the osm tags (e.g. for a Starbucks).

See task 4702 for detailed instructions. When you are done, attach a link to the review request you created to complete the task.

If you run into problems that you cannot solve on your own, please contact your mentors:
