Geo-fence authorization provisioning
A system includes a communication module that receives a request to post content to an event gallery associated with an event. The request in turn includes geo-location data for a device sending the content, and identification data identifying the device or a user of the device. The system further has an event gallery module to perform a first authorization operation that includes determining that the geo-location data corresponds to a geo-location fence associated with an event. The event gallery module also performs a second authorization operation that includes using the identification data to verify an attribute of the user. Finally, based on the first and second authorization operations, the event gallery module may selectively authorize the device to post the content to the event gallery.
1. A computer implemented method, comprising:
receiving a request to post content to an event gallery associated with an event, the request comprising;
geo-location data that describes a particular location of a device; and
identification data identifying at least one of the device or a user of the device;
performing a first authorization operation including determining that the particular location is within a geo-location fence associated with the event;
performing a second authorization operation including using the identification data to verify an attribute of the user, the verifying the attribute of the user comprising using a history of user activities with respect to a software application on the device to identify application of an image filter to an image on the device, the image filter being relevant to the particular location; and
based on the first and second authorization operations, posting the content to the event gallery.
2. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the identification data comprises an IP address, and the second authorization operation comprises verifying that the IP address relates to an organization associated with the event.
3. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising locating a user profile, associated with the user, stored in a database, wherein the second authorization operation includes extracting the history of user activities from the user profile in the database in order to verify the attribute of the user.
4. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the identification data includes real-time visual data captured using the device, the attribute of the user comprises a user visual attribute, the verifying the attribute of the user comprises comparing visual data of user profile data with the real-time visual data, and the user profile data is associated with the user.
5. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the verifying the attribute of the user comprises identifying at least one communication with a further user, the further user having made at least one communications contribution to a further event gallery associated with a further event.
6. The computer implemented method of claim 5 , wherein the event and the further event are both related to a common entity.
7. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the attribute of the user comprises a user activity attribute.
8. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the event gallery is available for a specified transitory period.
9. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the event gallery comprises individual ephemeral messages shown in sequence.
10. A system comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving a request to post content to an event gallery associated with an event, the request comprising:
geo-location data that describes a particular location of a device; and
identification data identifying at least one of the device or a user of the device;
performing a first authorization operation including determining that the particular location is within a geo-location fence associated with the event;
performing a second authorization operation including using the identification data to verify an attribute of the user, the verifying the attribute of the user comprising using a history of user activities with respect to a software application on the device to identify application of an image filter to an image on the device, the image filter being relevant to the particular location; and
based on the first and second authorization operations, posting the content to the event gallery.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the identification data comprises an IP address, and the second authorization operation comprises verifying that the IP address relates to an organization associated with the event.
12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the operations further comprise locating a user profile, associated with the user, stored in a database, and wherein the second authorization operation includes extracting the history of user activities from the user profile in the database in order to verify the attribute of the user.
13. The system of claim 10 , wherein the identification data includes real-time visual data captured using the device, the attribute of the user comprises a user visual attribute, the verifying the attribute of the user comprises comparing visual data of user profile data with the real-time visual data, and the user profile data is associated with the user.
14. The system of claim 10 , wherein the verifying the attribute of the user comprises identifying at least one communication with a further user, the further user having made at least one communications contribution to a further event gallery associated with a further event.
15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the event and the further event are both related to a common entity.
16. The system of claim 10 , wherein the attribute of the user comprises a user activity attribute.
17. The system of claim 10 , wherein the event gallery is available for a specified transitory period.
18. The system of claim 10 , wherein the event gallery comprises individual ephemeral messages shown in sequence.
19. A system comprising:
a communication component, implemented using at least one processor, to receive a request to post content to an event gallery associated with an event, the request comprising:
geo-location data that describes a particular location of a device; and
identification data identifying at least one of the device or a user of the device; and
an event gallery component to:
perform a first authorization operation including determining that the particular location is within a geo-location fence associated with the event;
perform a second authorization operation including using the identification data to verify an attribute of the user, the verifying the attribute of the user comprising using a history of user activities with respect to a software application on the device to identify application of an image filter to an image on the device, the image filter being relevant to the particular location; and
based on the first and second authorization operations, post the content to the event gallery.
20. The system of claim 19 , wherein the identification data includes real-time visual data captured using the device, the attribute of the user comprises a user visual attribute, the verifying the attribute of the user comprises comparing visual data of user profile data with the real-time visual data, and the user profile data is associated with the user.
