Is there a Google-like indexer that indexes all the photos it can find online and makes them searchable on location information in the EXIF data? That would be a killer backend for something like this. Seems like something Google Images could easily do but I can't find an option for it.

Something like this http://www.panoramio.com/map ?

I think that's what the project is using. But I also thought Panoramio required people submit photos to it, it doesn't just pick up every photo it can find online (like Google Images does). I've never uploaded anything to Panoramio but I've taken a ton of pictures.

Yup. You do have to submit photos. It has a selector to import Google+ photos, but it doesn't have all your photos automatically.
