Thanks Peter! I am thinking that I may just use Nutch to do the crawl and index off of these sites. I need to check out the APIs for each to make sure I'm not missing anything related to the geospatial data for each image. Obviously both do the extraction when the images are uploaded so I'm guessing that it's also stored somewhere too ;-)
