  • ACCESS CONTROL FOR SERVER-BASED GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20080307498
    Abstract: A number of geospatial attributes or parameters associated with GIS data are used to filter requests for geo-visualization of the data and to determine whether the request is subject to a restriction. Access to GIS data may be controlled for a variety of reasons including security concerns, proprietary concerns, or merely to generate revenue for a particular data source. In an open or public platform, contributors of GIS data accessible for geo-visualization may place limits or restrictions on the availability of or accessibility of the GIS data. The contributor may tag or otherwise encode an entire dataset or portions of the dataset with restriction instructions associated with one or more geospatial attributes.
