Nice site, beautiful maps. That site is a better example of what
serious cartographers can really do with a map server. If you really
put some time into it, you could build the same kind of application
with GRASS5, MapServer, and you would also want to interface with
a database like postgres/postgis (see first link below) which we
haven't done yet (but have plans to do so.) There are some very nice
(and very expensive) commercial products for GIS and maps, but
if you don't have the money, you can still do some nice work with
freely available open source apps.
Here's some other links for other mapservers I've been looking
at for ideas for what we could do with our mapserver. They all have
Linux/Unix/MapServer somewhere in the equation
(may have to poke around some.)
