I am trying to extract latitude and longitude and also name and slug from my terms.

I am using these fields in a JSON. This is my code which works fine:

function places_query_posts_callback() {
  $args = array (
    'post_type' => 'erinnerungsort',
    'orderby' => 'post_title',
    'order' => 'ASC',
  );
  $query = new WP_Query( $args );
  $response = array();
  foreach ( $query->posts as $result ) {
    $geodata_raw = get_post_meta($result->ID, 'wpcf-geodaten', true);
    $geodata_raw = substr($geodata_raw,1,(strlen($geodata_raw)-2));
    $geodata = explode(',', $geodata_raw);
    $data = array();
    $data['id'] = $result->ID;
    $data['lat'] = $geodata[0];
    $data['lng'] = $geodata[1];
    $data['title'] = $result->post_title;
    $data['tooltip'] = get_post_meta($result->ID, 'wpcf-tooltip');
    $data['content'] = $result->post_content;
    $data['teaser'] = substr($result->post_content, 0, 200);
    $data['type'] = array_shift(get_the_terms($result->ID, 'artdesortes'));
    $data['region'] = array_shift(get_the_terms($result->ID, 'region'));
    $data['thumb'] = get_the_post_thumbnail_url($result->ID);
    //$data['images'] = get_post_meta($result->ID, 'wpcf-bild');
    $data['chronik'] = 'chronik';
    $data['link'] = get_permalink($result->ID) ;
    array_push($response, $data);
  }
  exit( json_encode( $response ) );
}

I expected to see:
How do I access latitude & longitude?
How do I access slug, name etc. from my terms ('region' & 'artdesortes')

Thanks in advance

Hello,

I suggest you try Types function types_render_field(), for example:

$latitude = types_render_field("geodaten", array(
	'post_id'	=> $result->ID,
	'format'	=> 'FIELD_LATITUDE'
));

$longitude = types_render_field("geodaten", array(
	'post_id'	=> $result->ID,
	'format'	=> 'FIELD_LONGITUDE'
));
