Due to the proliferation of data sources on the Web, information integration has emerged as a research topic of great interest in the scholars community. The crutial challenge is to stitch heterogeneous data together. In addition to formulating the problem of information integration, we sketch a model of information integration system based on the past efforts which represent original heritage of the field. We describe key components of an information integration system and their usage with an example in the image domain. To facilitate searching of images about a particular geo entity we have developed a system that presents a unified view of images extracted from different data sources. The real challenge is the extraction of images from different data sources followed by their meaningful representation on the user interface which is discussed along with the problems related to the deep Web which came up while crawling Web data.
