LongName

Element Description

The long name of the service. It provides a human readable name for the service.

Best Practices

The Long Name should be a descriptive, formal title of the service. The Long Name should not be the same as the Name element. It is recommended that the Long Name follow a mixed case capitalization scheme and that the use of special characters (such as underscores) and acronyms be kept to a minimum, if possible. 

Examples:

• Service Example: LARC ESI EOSDIS Service Implementation  
• OPeNDAP Service Example: GHRC Hyrax OPeNDAP 
• SEDAC Hazards mapper example: SEDAC Hazards Mapper
