Good luck with this. It's called geocoder. Or more specifically reverse geocoding to turn coordinates into a human readable output. I'm fairly sure the one google provides is a pay service but you get a bunch free. So plan on caching the results and using your cached results when ever possible.

List
 list = geoCoder.getFromLocation(location
            .getLatitude(), location.getLongitude(), 1);
    if (list != null & list.size() > 0) {
        Address address = list.get(0);
        result = address.getLocality();
        return result;
