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?
