I want to display data in 3d with geoserver like relief and buildings. What
components I'd add to do this.

GeoServer does not really 3D. I know that Chris has an idea to add 2.5D
support to our KML output. I am sure he can give you more info about
that. But unless i am mistaken what it involves is creating a template
which would provide geoserver with an "elevation" attribute of your
dataset. Similar to how time works with kml output now.

It sounds to me like you have two possible approaches depending on what you
want to achieve.
The first one would be to implement the GetView extension to the WMS as per
the WTS (Web Terrain Server) Discussion Paper
(http://portal.opengeospatial.org/files/?artifact_id=1072)
The comes from another OGC Discussion Paper, Web 3D Service
(http://portal.opengeospatial.org/files/?artifact_id=8869) and is meant to
deliver 3D scene graphs that clients have to render by themselves, but at the
difference of getting a single image it gets the actual 3D data.
That's at least for what the OGC provides us, not sure if someone actually
implemented those but if you're willing to get involved in doing so it would
be great.
