An augmented reality (AR) system for generating and displaying an enhanced situation visualization (ESV) is provided. The AR system may include an ESV computing device, a user computing device operated by a user and a reference database. The user computing device may transmit a reference request message to the ESV device, the reference request message including an image representative of a current view of a user. The ESV computing device may determine a subject of the image, retrieve reference information associated with the subject from the reference database, and determine situation information specific to the subject. The reference and situation information may be displayed on the user computing device to provide an ESV of the subject. The ESV may be used for insurance-related activities, such as handling, adjusting, and/or generating homeowner's insurance claims, and/or for instructional guidance.
