Per https://github.com/nasa/smd-open-science-guidelines/blob/main/request_for_comment/draft/rfc_002_how_to_make_data_fair.md#first-steps-2, it states:

Ensure an identifier is included in the DOI metadata directing to detailed product metadata. Use the RelatedIdentifier field with relationType IsDescribedBy.

When we say identifier here, what are we talking about? Is this an internal system PID? If so, what should our relatedIdentifierType be? For instance, in the Planetary Data System (PDS), we have an internal PID for all products,. Which of these types should we use?

It is the identifier that points to the metadata record for the data set registered by the DOI. The RelatedIdentifier could be an internal id but it must be resolvable. If it is an internal id you could resolve it with an ARK or a URI.

I changed the sentence to say "Ensure a resolvable identifier is included..."
