GeoShield | Division of geomatics. The GeoShield project is released. Download page: here New site at here Introduction In the last few years, here at the Institute of Earth Science (IST), we begin using OGC services for map generation (WMS, WFS), geodata processing (WPS) and sensor data interaction (SOS). Until our services were publicly accessible there aren't many problems, but when external entities (such as the Government) order some geo-application the data-confidentiality through the web became the main issue.
Such kind of project contains sensitive data, and obviously it can't be accessible to everyone. Searching around the web for a simple solution that suite our need we didn't find anything really simple, so we decided to develop ourself a security solution to garantee a strong protection for our geo-services. the first thing is to decide the project name: GeoShield. GeoShield is a project born to offer a centralized way to define security access-control to geo-services. WMS Security WFS Security WPS Security (To do) Tinyows.

Mapnik C++/Python GIS Toolkit | Welcome. Welcome - GeoServer. Welcome to MapServer — MapServer 5.6.6 documentation. ZOO Project - Open WPS Platform. ZOO is a WPS (Web Processing Service) open source project released under a MIT/X-11 style license . It provides an OGC WPS compliant developer-friendly framework to create and chain WPS Web services. ZOO is made of three parts: ZOO Kernel : A powerful server-side C Kernel which makes it possible to manage and chain Web services coded in different programming languages. ZOO Services : A growing suite of example Web services based on various Open Source libraries. (get inspired !) ZOO API : A server-side JavaScript API able to call and chain the ZOO Services, which makes the development and chaining processes easier. ZOO Services Introduction Example ZOO Services ZCFG Reference ZOO API introduction ZOO API examples ZOO API classes ZOO Kernel introduction ZOO is based on a 'WPS Service Kernel' which constitutes the ZOO's core system (aka ZOO Kernel).
A ZOO service is a link composed of a metadata file (.zcfg) and the code for the corresponding implementation.
