Answer 1

You can do this by adding readOnly: true to the definition of your field:

module.exports = {
  extend: 'apostrophe-pieces',
  name: xyz,
  label: xyz,
  addFields: [
    {
      name: 'latitude',
      label: 'latitude',
      type: 'string',
      required: true,
      readOnly: true
    }
  ]
}
