It is possible to do this with Python, since a server-side HTML ISMAP will
send its coordinates off as part of the request. There are some notes
here:

The coordinates we get back are in terms of the pixels of the image, so
translating to a latitidue/longitude system will probably take some more
work.
Best of wishes!
