How do I export the output of an async function?

I am running the following code. Where I am expecting to see the outputs latitude and longitude, what I get is Promise{<pending>} in my console. Why is this the case? I thought using async/await helps to eliminate the problem of pending promises since the code can't go forward until the promise fulfills. How do I solve this problem?

const issURL = 'someUrl';
async function getData() {
            const res = await fetch(issURL);
            const data = await res.json();
            const {
                latitude,
                longitude
            } = data;
            return (latitude, longitude);
        }
console.log(getData());

Since the getData() function needs some time to resolve its promise, you have to await it as well. Alternatively, you can use getData().then((res) => console.log(res))
