Improvements and portability of technologies and smart devices have enabled a rapid growth in the amount of user generated media such as photographs and videos. Whilst various media generation and management systems exist it still remains a challenge to discover the right information, for the right purpose. This paper proposes an approach to reverse geocoding by crossreferencing multiple geospatial data sources to enable the enrichment of media and therefor enable better organisation and

In this paper we present a system architecture that incorporates our proposed approach to aggregate several geospatial databases to enrich geo-tagged media with human readable information, which will further enable our goal of creating an overall picture about places. Our approach enables the semantic information relating to POIs (Point Of Interest).
