Edgar, GDAL can read (and write) ArcInfo ASCII grids. You can find more info here: http://www.gdal.org/frmt_various.html#AAIGrid
The case that you are describing is not a great fit for GDAL alone. If you want to overlay your grid and other vector datasets in a desktop application, you might want to look at QGIS http://www.qgis.org/en/site/ If you are more interested in styling the data and serving maps over the Web, you may want to look at MapServer. http://mapserver.org/ David.
