Within the TelemData application there are functions for retrieving latitude and longitude from the pixhawk located on the vehicle.

Input:
None
Output:
The vehicles direction in degrees
If not connected to the vehicle return -1
Notes:
The libraries used to get this data are pymavlink and dronekit: documentation found beellow
