Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) With the spread of digital cameras, shooting photos has been becoming an everyday affair.
However,there are few methods or systems to manage photos simply, and a huge amount of photo data remains unorganized.
Although it is possible to add appropriate words explaining the contents of the photo as one of the methods to manage photos, it requires much time and effort to input such indices manually.
It is also difficult to add indices intended by a user automatically.
In this paper, we propose a semi-automatic photo indexing system that enables the users to generate indices simply and browse a photo library efficiently.
Index candidates are acquired by map database retrieval and relevant words extraction using web retrieval based on shooting position and orientation.
The indexing work can be done in parallel with shooting, and efficient browsing is attained immediately after a shooting.
We have implemented an indexing system based on the proposed method, and we report some experiments.
