Tip
Fast-Track Keywords:
An expedited review process (less than five business days) for proposed additions and changes that are small and have little or no impact on other users and metadata providers.
Full-Review Keywords
The full review process for proposed GCMD keyword changes is a review process facilitated by the ESDIS Standards Coordination Office (ESO) with input from subject matter experts drawn from the user and provider communities. These reviews take longer (1-2 keyword releases a year) to complete and are used for GCMD keyword changes or changes that have a large impact on existing records and users.
The keyword submitter will be notified whether their keyword is considered a fast-track or full review.
