If you take a lot of pictures with your smartphone, you will eventually lose track of exactly where the picture was taken.

For digikam, a feature would be desirable that reads the geographic coordinate of an image and thus performs a reverse search via OpenStreetMap and its nominatim search (reverse geocoding).

The result would be an automated sorting of the images in the respective subfolders according to nominatim search.

Example:
Hikes / Country / State / District / Sight

If you don't mind doing it manually for a selection of pictures, you can already do that using the Geolocation tool (reverse geocoding tab). 

For an automated location list, I think it's the same suggestion I made some time ago at bug 399113.
