Hi Fred,

thanks for the hints, A and B sound interesting - PostGIS is not an option
here. 

One more question, because you already used these workarounds. What solution
A or B should be more usable (faster) from your opinion, if I need to
calculate the mean while moving the mouse over the map canvas?

Regards
Otto
