			* This is not stated anywhere in ''Timo'', but the time frame for certain ''Garneau'' types means that these ships would have been originally commissioned with service ship letters in their registrations.

	* The '''''Schmidt''''' is also a deep-space salvage tug, but apparently more modernized (relative to the ''Todega'').

	By [[2267]], this study had turned into a family of low-cost Class Two vessels, the first of which was a light surveyor dubbed '''''Garneau''''' class. The moving of the antimatter pods and deuterium tankage into the main hull took up some 56% of the primary hull internal volume formerly available for accommodation and research facilities. Yet, space was left for somewhat uncomfortably housing a crew of 15-40, as well as for four standard laboratory modules and sixteen sensor berths—contrasting with the eight modules and 32 berths of a typical podded ''Oberth''. Weaponry and associated systems were omitted and the impulse system slightly down-scaled. Otherwise, changes were minimal: essentially, all it took to change an ''Oberth'' into a ''Garneau'' was to remove the ventral pod and its attachment points and cut a 120 m3 opening into the saucer to install the fuel tanks and to replace the bow airlock/hangar with a navigational deflector array.

	Translating the simple design into an operational success was equally effortless. Some 34 ''Garneaus'' were rapidly constructed, mainly at [[Centaurian]] shipyards, and sent to dilithium-hunting and mapping missions within [[Federation]]-controlled but poorly explored space. Many ships sailed out with only one or two laboratories installed, carrying minimal crews, although the full complement would have been two general planetary sciences labs, two geology and mineralogy labs, and some 25 crew and scientists. Most were operated by civilian research and industrial organizations, even if in pursuit of Star Fleet goals, and carried NAR registries. Towards the end of the [[2279\|2270s]], the dozen originally under Star Fleet registry (NCC-~~641~~-651) were also sold to commercial concerns; the eye of storm between decreasing piracy and increasing [[Klingon]] tensions lured resource hunters back into the business and the ''Garneau'' was the ideal platform for serious prospecting.

	The Star Fleet surveyor replacement program was economical and efficient, rather than fast and ambitious. '''''Darwin''''' (NCC-652) light surveyors were improved ''Garneaus'' with light weaponry and more advanced computer systems and warp engines. Some two dozen were built between [[2277]] and [[2286]], but it was soon found out that survey missions in nearby space were no longer of crucial interest. Longer-range surveys in turn required full-sized ''Oberth'' ships, of which several new batches were built. The by-then rather decrepit ''Garneaus'' were retired and replaced by the ''Darwins'', which were then sent to map the resources of [[UFP]] core regions to high resolution. The mapping program was so efficient that to this day, no further mineral survey in the area has been needed.
