This is the high performance UBLOX NEO-6M GPS integrated with Honeywell compass HMC5883 in one module. It can be used standalone with arduino or microcontroller or wit APM Ardupilot. The GPS will determine the position and the compass define the direction (bearing angle or angle with the north). The GPS rate is up to 5HZ. 

The GPS is connected using UART serial connection, while the compass is connected through I2C connection. The module comes with backup battery and 2 cables for connecting GPS and compass with your microcontroller or Arduino. Below is a our tutorial and manual for using the ublox gps and compass mpdule with arduino and it contain also harware connection and pin assignment.
