The thesaurus will allow a much finer term to be applied to data sets than is currently possible with the ANZLIC subject keywords.

agree  Kitty Brussaard: Or 'refined search terms' to stay close to the original!

  -> Ja... bedankt ... "refined terms" will do...

neutral  Jack den Haan: Hmm... 'refined search' is indeed commonly used in computer science but I think the term usually refers to the algorithms used for searching, not to the terms themselves. 'Refined search terms', as Kitty suggests, would be more accurate IMHO.

(linked) subordinate terms


Explanation:
"onderliggend" is the key here. The key term is used to search for linked subordinate terms.
