10/10/2011: Unfortunately I haven't been able to invest any work at all in the module. Therefore I'm looking for new maintainers. My sincerest apologies to the Drupal community.
The Carto module makes the mappingwidgets framework available to nodes in Drupal. This enables the browsing of maps (available from opengis compliant web mapping services) in drupal nodes.
General functionality:
carto filter to include mapping widgets in any drupal node
default block for an overview map (with zoom in functionality) or a simple legend
custom blocks can be defined using the carto filter containing any type of mappingwidget; e.g. a custom overview/legend block or a button-block.
node type for specifying opengis web mapping services; block and RSS feeds for recently added WMS'es; ogc getmap/getcapabilities request can be done through drupal.
This module allows you to authenticate users with a browser-based password (HTTP Auth). You can restrict access to the site by role and choose to secure restricted pages or the entire site. This means the site will be inaccessible to search engines and other crawlers, but you can still allow access to certain users.
