Element Description
Words or phrases to further describe the service.
Best Practices
The Ancillary Keywords element is optional and is an uncontrolled free-text field. It can be leveraged to provide any additional keywords needed to describe the service in addition to the Service Keywords (which must be selected from a controlled vocabulary list). This can be useful for providing information needed for other applications or for providing niche keywords which may not fit in the current scope of the controlled Service Keywords. Ancillary keywords are indexed for search using the CMR API, however, they do not appear as faceted keywords in Earthdata Search. Special characters should not be used in the Ancillary Keywords.
