This is a function of the website, not the image itself. You should be able to automate some of this (ie. extract the coordinates from exif tags to build the html links dynamically).

Not sure if facebook can do what you want it to do. Of course you could always write an app to do this. | If the geo-tagging works, people should be able to view the pictures and | be able to click on them and visit Google Earth/Maps or whatever and see | the exact spot where we took the picture.
