Map XML data from different XML Schema

We've an XML contains data. We need to extract data from it and move it in to a different XML. Both XMLs are different in structure.

We have Altova and we want to do this job by using it. Any solution on this; which Altova tool will be best for this job and how?

XSLT is the best tool for the job. Beware, though, it's a rather difficult concept to grasp unless you're of a declarative frame of mind.

I wouldn't normally recommend books over online docs, but in this case I would. O'Reilly does two very good books on XSLT (including the Cookbook) that I can highly recommend.

What you're looking for is a XSL Transformation which in itself is again a XML document that describes how to create the new XML from the old XML.

Check out this W3Schools section on learning XSLT for that.

In terms of the Altova tools - you could either use the MapForce data mapper (which sounds like that you're looking for), or alternatively the StyleVision tool to create and maintain the XSLT files. Try MapForce first - sounds like a good fit.
