Dear Till

Thank you for your explanation, my friend alredy told me that I suppose to used a GRASS.
But there's another question that being my thought, 
first, the scripts to connect between mapserver and the GRASS software

second, how to interpolate the data [in this case I use Rainfall data]
in GRASS then mapserver shows the interpolation result from GRASS in
mapserver? 

I am loooking for ur advice

best,
Gito

Dear Gito,

UMN is not a real "GIS application" itsself, UMN is more capable for showing processed GIS data in the internet. There are some possibilities to interact with PostGIS, but if you really want to interpolate data from points to surfaces, you should think about using a GIS in your backend (e.g. GRASS, which supports a PHP, python (and some others based) interface to web-applications).
As an example we use GRASS as backend so that users may interpolate time-series of measured soil-moisture data and present this data via UMN Mapserver in an OpenLayers based client.

So, what you need is an architecture, not purely UMN.
Correct me, if I'm wrong... -)

Hope this points you in a direction

Till
