Chair
of the Security WG of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) |
It is the
objective of the Security WG to coordinate the process how to establish
security and access control by leveraging existing IT standards and perhaps
specific extension to those standards to meet geo-specific requirements. |
|
Member
of the Policy 1.0
Standards Working Group of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) |

Member
of the Geospatial Rights Management (GeoRM)*
of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) *: former GeoDRM WG |
It is
the objective of the GeoRM WG to specify a
framework for establishing Rights Management to the geospatial domain. One
main activity is to specify a geospatial extension to existing Rights
Expression Languages, in order to support DRM for geographic information. |

Geospatial
eXtensible
Access Control Markup Language The (GeoXACML)
Standard (OGC documents 07-026r2, 07-098r1 and 07-099r1) defines a
geo-specific extension to the eXtensible Access
Control Markup
Language (XACML) standard from OASIS. This OGC
Standard can be obtained from http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards.

Participant
in the OWS-4 Initiative of the Open Geospatial Consortiums (OGC) |
The objective
of the GoDRM
thread of OWS-4 was to develop concepts and implementations to establish

Project
for the Runder
Tisch
GIS e.V.
(RT-GIS) for establishing GeoXACML based access
control for a Web Map Service, using the RT-GIS OGC test platform. |
An
unprotected WMS of the RT-GIS OGC test platform is to be protected. The
implementation shows geographic access rights for two users. You can see the
demo here. |
|
Access
Control for Geo Web Services based Spatial Data Infrastructures, using GeoXACML
(OGC Discussion Paper 05-036) |
In order to protect access to services that provide geographic information, it is important to be able to declare access rights based on the geometric characteristics of the geographic information. GeoXACML supports this. |
