Question

Is there any kind of tutorial that explains how to find a given location on the map that is sent in degrees and minutes?

Default

The borders of the map are lined with the references. In larger scale it's in 10-degree blocks. As you zoom in you get more and more precise markings - all around the edges of the map, and on the grid lines themselves.
