If you used Openlayers js library for the map display you could limit the map to the each image and wouldn't need to convert any of the data as openlayers understands projected data. Otherwise for a given background image you would need export the points in that frame either as an image, or with a fake projection putting the corner of the background image as 0,0 (lower left I think).
