2. Motivating Scenario Query: “Find movie theaters within 30 miles of 75080” within, near, overlap – Geospatial Operators Theaters, Restaurants – Businesses (Non-Geospatial data) Miles – Distance Unit 75080, Richardson – Geo References Cinemark Movies 10 Radisson Hotel Dallas North- Richardson

3. Semantic Access Control Traditional Access Control Traditional Access Control Semantic Web Semantic Access Control

4. Semantic Access Control (cont.) Shortcomings of Traditional Access Control Proprietary systems Lack of modularity Changes in access control schemas break the system Changes in data schemas break the system Path to resources (e.g., XPATH) is clumsy //school/department/professor/personal/ssn – LONG! Non-optimal for distributed/federation environment

5. Query Grammar Define, Geospatial Objects as GB, Geospatial Operator as GO, Polygon Type as PT and Extension as E. Then, :: [ ] [ ] [ ] :: Non-geometric Concept :: :: Distance :: Within | Touches On | Intersect | Between :: Straight line | Circle

12. Geo-WS Security Data providers (e.g., geospatial clearinghouses, research centers) need access control on serviceable resources. Access policies have geospatial dimension Bob has access on Building A Bob does NOT have access on Building B Building A and B have overlapping area Current access control mechanisms are static and non- modular.

13. Geo-WS Security: Policy Components Subjects: Software Agents or Human clients Resources: Assets exposed through WS Actions: Read, Write, Execute Conditions: Additional constraints (e.g., geospatial parameters) on policy enforcement Resources Subjects Actions Condition Policy Set

15. Geo-WS Security: Semantics Policy rules are based on description logic (DL). DL allows machine-processed deductions on policy base. Example 1: DL Rule: ‘Stores’ Inverse ‘Is Stored In’ Fact: Airplane_Hanger(X) ‘stores’ Airplane(Y) Example 2: DL Rule: ‘Is Located In’ is Transitive. Fact: Polygon(S) ‘Is Located In’ Polygon(V) Polygon(V) ‘Is Located In’ Polygon(T)

17. Geo-WS Security: Concrete Example Resource := Washington, Oregon, California, West Coast Rule:= West Coast = WA Union OR Union CA Policy:= Subject:= Bob Resources:= WA, OR, CA Action:=Read Query: Retrieve Interstate Highway topology of West Coast
