Hi !
Then, as Brent said, you should take a look at gdaldem.

What I mean to say, with the given appropriate form of data (DEM or
DTM or whatever) we can not do relief shading (perspective viewing of
terrain - to be more specific with the defined aspect ratio, slope and
direction of light source) using maservers mapengine.
So my question is whether I can hook any 3D rendering engines /
drivers (designed for the geodatabases) into the mapengine so that
relief shading could be accomplished?
Hope I am clear now.

- perspective viewing of terrain (mapserver can't do this)
I don't totally agree with this. ;)
I have been able to use mapserver with WorldWind Java in order to display a
raster layer on terrain.
And both (raster and terrain) were served by mapserver.
What, I think, is not possible (and perhaps what you mean) is to have
mapserver render the terrain model given a custom viewpoint and serve the
result to openlayers.
I think there were some discussion about this some times ago...

Kishore,
Can you be more specific? Did you mean display of:
- contours (isolines of height with labels)
- shaded terrain (see GDAL's gdal_dem utility to create)
- perspective viewing of terrain (mapserver can't do this)
Best Regards,
Brent Fraser

Hi all,
I have built a website which shows geographic data in 2D. The
following is the configuration used for the website
MapServer
Postgresql - Data is stored with accordance with the OpenGeo standards.
OpenLayers
Php
But the website is intended for the rural community. So I thought of
displaying the data in 3D using MapServer.
So can anyone please give some references?
