About Location Map Viewer

The app has support for GPX and KML files, as

well as the "geo URI scheme" and popular map

services (google-maps, openstreetmap, yandex, ...).

It can work offline (without Internet/WiFi) once

geodata has been downloaded and cached.

Other Android apps can use LocationMapViewer through an

Intent-interface.

* INTERNET: to download map data from Open Streetmap Server

* ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE and ACCESS_WIFI_STATE: to find out if wifi/internet is online to start downloaded geodata

* WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE (to cache downloaded map data in local file system and to load gpx/kml-Files to be displayed in the map)
