Answer 1

Try this

    $DadosLBS['homeMobileCountryCode'] = $data['MCC'];
    $DadosLBS['homeMobileNetworkCode'] = $data['MNC'];
    $DadosLBS['radioType'] = 'gsm';
    $DadosLBS['carrier'] = $data['MNCOperator'];
    $DadosLBS['cellTowers'] = [
        [
            'mobileCountryCode' => $data['MCC'],
            'mobileNetworkCode' => $data['MNC'],
            'age' => $data['Age'],
            'timingAdvance' => $data['TA'],
            'locationAreaCode' => $data['LAC'],
            'cellId' => $data['CELL_ID'],
            'signalStrength' => $data['SIGNAL'],
        ],
    ];


        //Ver detalhes da API no https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geolocation/intro?hl=pt-br

    $service_url = "https://www.googleapis.com/geolocation/v1/geolocate";

    //Chave de acesso

    $CurlQueryString = http_build_query($Curl_Data);

    //Preparando o método a ser enviado os dados
    $Metodo = array(
        CURLOPT_URL         => $service_url.'?'.$CurlQueryString // Define URL to be called

                                       ) // Dados para o cabeçalho do post
        ,CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION     => true             // follow redirects

        ,CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST     => false
    );

    $Curl_Options = array_replace_recursive($Metodo,$Curl_Adicional_Options);

    $cURLConn = curl_init();
    curl_setopt_array($cURLConn, $Curl_Options);

    $vDados['Curl']['Output']       = curl_exec($cURLConn);
    $vDados['Curl']['Error']        = curl_error($cURLConn);
    $vDados['Curl']['ErrorNum']     = curl_errno($cURLConn);
    $vDados['Curl']['ErrorMsg']     = curl_strerror($vDados['Curl']['ErrorNum']);
    $vDados['Curl']['Info']         = curl_getinfo($cURLConn);

    curl_close($cURLConn);

    if ($vDados['Curl']['ErrorNum'] != 0) {
        $Dados['loc'] = array(
            'status' => 'ERROR',
            'error' => array(

    }

    //Tratando as respostas
    $vDados['Curl']['Dados'] = json_decode($vDados['Curl']['Output']) or die("Error: Cannot create object");

    print_r($vDados['Curl']['Dados']);
