A computer readable media, includes instructions capable of being interpreted for execution by a computer processor. The instructions provide information sufficient for: reading a master telemetry definition data file; producing a source code for implementing a data stream telemetry method, and generating documentation files for the source code. The source code includes a get component, a format component, and a blocks component. The get component includes source code for accessing flight software variable values according to the master telemetry definition data file. The format component includes source code for scaling the flight software variable values according to the master telemetry definition data file. The format component includes source code for formatting the values as telemetry stream parameters according to the master telemetry definition data file. The blocks component includes source code for placing telemetry parameters into a data stream according to the master telemetry definition data file.
