[Fiware-webui] POI and FIWARE authorization?

[Ari Okkonen ADT]

Hi Philipp,

Currently, the POI can use KeyRock or Google for authentication.
The POI has its own simple authorization system having roles
admin, add, update, and view for the whole data provider. The
original idea is to put data needing different access rights to
different data providers. The architecture is designed so that it
is not too difficult to introduce other OAuth 2.0 authentication
providers, if needed (another KeyRock provider, Twitter, Facebook,
LindedIn, ...).

(However, the authentication broke just down for an unknown reason,
and I am fighting to find the bug. So, I cannot demonstrate it just
now.)

That IoT sensor registration is supposedly be simple and worth of
studying. Thank you for the info.

Anyway, have a look at http://poi.lab.fiware.org/pois for POIs in
Germany, Spain, and Finland. Select language at lower right corner
and categor[y|ies] in the hierarchical list at left.
