Hello!

When I search Gävle in Sweden, then click on the map, as it is shown in the attached picture. There two different pairs of coordinates for Gävle. Why?

Many thanks in advance.

Do you mean these two lines:
N 60° 42' 0'' E 17° 10' 0''
60.7 / 17.16667

They first is degree/minutes/seconds and the second is the decimal representation of the same coordinates.
