How do I create a telemetry log when all I have is dataflash logs?

I downloaded dataflash logs off my drone. I want to view the missions on the map. I see Mission Planner has a telemetry log review option. Is there a way to convert dataflash logs to telemetry logs?
Thanks.

You can replay data flash logs on:

Executed mission commands are also stored in data flash logs:

I found this really useful, thanks.
That said, I still wish I could convert Dataflash to TLOG.

You can also create a .kmz file that will show the mission route in Google Earth. And you can produce a 1st person .kmz file that will play live in Google Earth. These can be produced with Mission Planner from the dataflash Logs tab.

Need Telemetry for that as those logs are on the Ground Station.

Dataflash logs contain much more info than TLOGS, and you can review them using Mission Planner:

I promise what you really want is to become more familiar with dataflash log review rather than attempting to convert them to TLOG format. While that may seem reasonable based upon your experience so far with mission planner, it’s really quite illogical once you’ve grasped the concept of how to manipulate dataflash logs.

Thanks, this is exactly what I wanted.

I didn’t realise the “Convert to KMZ/GPX” button would do what I want.
