On the iPhone, the Google Earth app lets you copy the coordinates of any 
location you're viewing (touch OPTIONS and swipe to POSITION to find the 
copiable coordinates). Then you can paste them into an email or anywhere else 
you wish.

If you paste them into Apple Maps, the mapping app can take you right to that 
location, but first a slight format adjustment is required: the Google Earth 
app outputs them with a space between the last digit and the letter indicating 
direction. Apple Maps doesn't like the space, so after pasting in
"XX.xxxxxx N" you have to delete the space to get "XX.xxxxxxN", or your search 
will return a "No Results Found".
