Answer 1

This one the value with key location

location = { lat = "13.0048165"; lng = "77.6600505"; };

The provide data is a Dictionary (with key results). Derived value from results is an array which holds all possible places from API. Each place (an object at index of array) is dictionary which have a sub Dictionary with key geometry. In this dictionary you have another dictionary which hold your location dictionary with lat and lng.

if i am not wrong it will be something like this

NSDictionary *aPlace=[[dict objectForKey:@"results"] objectAtIndex:someIndex];
NSDictionary *geomatry=[aPlace objectForKey:@"geometry"];
NSDictionary *location=[geomatry objectForKey:@"location"];
float lat=[[location objectForKey:@"lat"] floatValue ];
float lng=[[location objectForKey:@"lng"] floatValue ];
