The parameters are "lat" (latitude) and "lon" (longitude). These must be entered in decimal representation, not degrees, minutes, and seconds. This page can be used to do the conversion if needed.
Keep in mind that Birmingham is located at coordinates north and west, meaning that the latitude is positive, but the longitude is negative.
Example:
{{Locate |
lat=33.468306 |
lon=-86.808146
}}
