@victoriadiesel Select the column in the Fields pane. Use the Column tools tab in the ribbon and find the Data categorization drop down. Use this to change the field to have a data categorization of latitude or longitude.

Power BI uses a number of different icons to indicate the types of fields in a report. When you can recognize them, you understand better how they act in different visuals. You can read the following official documenation to know more details of Field list icons.
