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

Aerialways from Step 1 bring people up the mountain. Now it's time to also show piste ways which bring them down again.

• Add support for the known piste type values. Introduce corresponding visual categories PisteDownhill, PisteNordic, ..., PisteSkiJump.
• Use the piste difficulty value to determine an appropriate fill color for the way style. Use some sort of white/light gray as fallback. Note that different countries use different colors as shown in the OSM wiki. Support this by using the system locale. E.g. you could check QLocale::system().country() and use different colors for {QLocale::Japan}, {QLocale::UnitedStates, QLocale::UnitedStatesMinorOutlyingIslands, QLocale::Canada} and the Oceanian countries and finally fall back to Europe.
• Describe piste grooming in Placemark.cpp. The values itself are too short to be understandable by users, therefore use a shortened description for each value.
• Add piste:abandoned=yes to the blacklist in the start of StyleBuilder::determineVisualCategory to prevent that abandoned piste ways are rendered
• Extract descriptions from piste:lit, lit, gladed and patrolled tags.

Test your changes with ski areas and compare to opensnowmap.org
