Can someone link me to a page where I can learn about specific locations on a map, what they are called, and how many minutes it takes for a weapon to spawn after it’s been taken on a map?

Although I can’t help with the callouts, you should load up the maps in Forge and learn where the spawn points for each team are and where random ordnance can spawn throughout the game.
Just so you know, lets say you pickup the Scattershot on Haven at the start of the game, it isn’t going to respawn in the same place because it is an Initial Ordnance. The only two maps I know of with a consistent weapon spawn is Monolith & Landfall with the Rocket Launcher which spawns every two minutes.
Best thing to do for weapon spawns is check the map out in Forge
If they’ve been changed since launch, play the map in matchmaking and you can then save it from local files in file browser 
For callouts, check out sites like HaloCouncil.

The sticky detonator on Skyline is on the same interval, if I remember correctly.
ya know, the best thing you can do is just be communicative with your teammates. Call outs are important, yes, but the best way to learn them is to just jump into team throwdown and hope your teammates are savy enough to know them, and nice enough to help you learn them in the game.
Spawns, however, are just stupid in this game. honestly learning them on most maps isn’t going to help much. Maps like abandon have such unpredictable spawns that your best bet is to just spin around in circles until someone spawns. Dynamic spawns have always been a pet peeve of mine.
But I digress.
If you’re trying to be more competitive, you can always run throwdown and get practice. Eventually you’ll get someone that will yell call outs all game and you can just remember them that way! haha
Edit: Also, as far as weapon spawns go, the “Random global ordnance” is much less random than people like to think. The few games of infinity settings that I have played have been pretty consistent with the global spawns as to where they go throughout the game. I couldn’t tell you the exat time of the weapon spawns in infinity, although I would assume it is around 2:05 minutes after the weapon is picked up.
In throwdown, however, Snipers will spawn exactly 2 minutes after they are picked up, in the same spot on each map, along with overshields. Rockets/Railgun will spawn at 3 minute intervals throughout the match, regardless of when they get touched (12 minutes, 9 minutes, 6 minutes, etc.)
In general, throwdown is a much more consistent playlist. Once you get into it, you’ll never go back to the randomness that is infinity.

Monolith’s Beam Rifle spawns every 3 minutes, and I know the Shotgun on Landfall is on a respawn timer, too.
