I believe you could do most of the heavy lifting in .net and leverage Html.Raw to transform the object for you:

@{
    var myObj = Model.Select(i => new {
        item.Gebouwnaam,
        item.LocatieLatitude.ToString().Replace(",", "."),
        item.LocatieLongitude.ToString().Replace(",", "."),
        item.Plaats,
        item.Gebruiksfunctie,
        item.Licentiehouder,
        item.rating }).ToArray();
}

Since it's touched on in this question, HttpUtility.JavaScriptStringEncode() comes in really handy for strings containing newline characters:

@{ var myNetString = "Hi,\r\nMy name is Joe\r\nAnd I work in a button factory"; }
