Hi,
My name is Firas El Khalil, I'm a PhD candidate at the University of
French Polynesia, and currently working on geographic inforlation
security.
Excuse me if I'm posting at the wrong mailing list, but I really
couldn't find any other place to interact with developers. If there
exists another place to address my problem please point me to it :)
I am going for a fast implementation of an access control model for
geographic information (and that's something that I didn't personally
worked on, but we need a prototype in the lab asap), but the problem is
I can't get to understand how would I implement it with geoserver. The
documentation didn't help me a lot.
So first of all, let me explain what I have in mind:
-I want to use OpenLayers to access my geroserver (server, hereafter).
-The request should be
-intercepted by my module
-forwarded for the server
-The server's response is intercepted by my module
-My module will:
-apply various access control policies on data intercepted from the
request interception phase
-the identify identify actions to be taken on data returned by the
response interception phase
-apply modifications
-return the result to OpenLayers
I will be working mainly on vector data.
Maybe what I have is completely inefficient or maybe unattainable with
geoserver. I hope you've got the idea.
Keep in mind that it's a prototype and not an integration solution, so
I'm looking for something relatively simple. Anyhow, I'm open to all
suggestions.
Thank you in advance.
