The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description.

This was later changed to DE22, with the prefix standing for Destroyer Escort. On 1 January 1969, the Royal Australian Navy adopted the numbering practice used by the US, Canadian and Pakistan Navies, removing the pennant number letter prefix from its ships' hulls. Derwent's pennant number thus became 49.

The first four ships, Parramatta (III), YARRA, STUART and Derwent, were a modified version of the Royal Navy's Type '12' Whitby and Rothesay Class frigates, which had very good sea-keeping qualities. Swan (III) and Torrens (II) were a derivation of the Royal Navy's Leander Class general purpose frigate, which was itself a development of the Type '12'. http://www.navy.gov.au/HMAS_Swan_(III) MONOWAI MONOWAI
