Try dividing the latitutude / longitude in a DAX measures and see if it gives you the correct result 3.691...

@Brunner_BI  How the Dax can help me to mark coordinates points on Map from the above dataset?  

Make sure to use the decimal values (exactly this data type) and when you left-click on the column (in the fields pane on the very right) make sure to tag the columns (in data category) as "longitude" and "latitude" maybe it works then...

There are two dots "." in your decimals? Are you sure this is a proper decimal value?
