update: due to some hints of users - eg oliver Salzburg and slhck i have been aware of gis.stackexchange.com - so i moved the topic on my own: Plz can you or somebody who has the permission close the article - since we do not need this topic on two sites. Thx for your work. KEEP up the service here! STACK-sites rock.

I have a list of POIs, some with a full description and some with only a few data entries, like the following:

6.9441000   50.9242000  [50677] (Ital) Casa di Biase [Köln]
6.9373600   50.9291800  [50674] (Ital) Al Setaccio [Köln]

However, I need the full dataset. Can I get this somewhere? If I have all the position data, is it possible to find the rest?

  • a. name of the street
  • b. name of the town

So for example, the data should finally look like this:

10.5346100  52.1613600  [38300] (Chin) Wanbao Kommissstr.9 [Wolfenbüttel]
13.2832500  52.4422600  [14167] (Ital) LaPergola  Unter den Eichen 84d [Berlin]
13.3177700  52.5062900  [10625] (Chin) Good Friends  Kantstr.30 [Berlin]

Can I do this with OpenStreetMap? Should I parse OpenStreetMap data? Or OpenBabel?
