Access Control
Access control in GIS governs who may use geographic data and functions, based on authentication (identity) and authorization (rights). It protects confidential layers, prevents unauthorized changes, and supports compliance.
Mechanisms: roles, group permissions, layer or project level, API keys for services, firewall and VPN around on-premise servers. In cloud GIS such as GeoApps, rights are managed centrally.
Access control is not data quality or backup. It concerns who gets access, not the substantive correctness of a BGT object.
