DatCon Introduction

DatCon is an app that reads a .DAT file and then creates output files that contain data extracted from the .DAT. These output files can then be used by Excel and Google Earth to view these data.

DatCon works for these .DATs

• .DAT from the Phantom 3, Inspire 1, Mavic Pro, and Phantom 4, Phantom 4 Pro, Inspire 2, Matrice M100, M600
• .DAT created by the Go and Fly Apps for all platforms except the Mavic Min i2

Note: The onboard .DAT for the Mavic Air, Mavic 2, Mavic Air 2, Mavic Mini and Mavic Mini 2 is encrypted and can not be processed by either DatCon or CsvView. In addition, the .DAT created for the Mavic Mini 2 by the Fly App is also encrypted and can not be processed by either DatCon or CsvView.

DatCon is an offline app. It is installed on your PC, Mac, or Linux system and then run locally.

To obtain a copy of DatCon and install it go to the Downloads section.
