It looks like a simple serial device plus a USB serial adapter. If you switch the USB port to host mode (see [1], note changes in kernel 2.6.28 paths) then plug in your compass it'll probably appear on serial port /dev/ttyUSB0. You can check this using dmesg or logread to see that it was recognised. From there you can treat it as any other serial device. You should be able to find plenty of example code for that.
