Reverse Geocoding

Immich supports local Reverse Geocoding using data from the GeoNames geographical database. This data is loaded into the Postgres database on each minor version upgrade, allowing all queries to be run on your own server.

Extraction

During Exif Extraction, assets with latitudes and longitudes are reverse geocoded to determine their City, State, and Country.

Usage

Data from a reverse geocode is displayed in the image details, and used in Smart Search.
