Loading an image from an URL into Google Maps

Issue

This is the code below which i am using.

mMap is the instance of GoogleMap

my question is how can i load URL of the image instead of R.drawable.ic_map_barber

I spend my lot of time but not getting any solution. please help me to solve this problem

DrawMarker.getInstance(getActivity()).draw(mMap, new LatLng(lat, Long), R.drawable.ic_map_barber, BarberName);

Solution

draw/add the marker after you obtain the bitmap :

URL url = new URL("http://imagepath/store/url");
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(url.openConnection().getInputStream());
map.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()

.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromBitmap(bmp)));
