Interpolation is a suitable method of computing the values of a spatial variable at the location which is impossible for measurement, based on the data obtained by the measurement of the same variable at the predetermined locations (e.g. weather stations). In this paper, temperature and rainfall values at 39 weather stations in Serbia and neighbouring countries were interpolated aiming at the research in forestry. The study results are presented in the form of an interactive map of Serbia, which allows a fast and simple determination of the analyzed variable at any point within its territory, which is presented by the example of 27 forest sites
