This paper propose a method for automatically linking spatial information that embedded in cultural heritage metadata to geo linked open data. The spatial information that embedded in a cultural heritage object could be used to enrich information of the other objects. For example, by knowing the spatial relation between two or more CH objects, we could conclude the condition of civilization in the past. Since most of the spatial information might had been documented incompletely, it needs to utilize open geo datasets as a dictionary to identify any place names and its other related information that would be beneficial to enrich CH metadata. However, linking spatial information to geo linked open data could be very troublesome if it done manually. For the experimental purposes, we built a prototype to test the feasibility of our method. As the result, our method are considered could give contribution in generating CH metadata along with their enriched spatial information.
