Draw Map in Browser out of 2 Dimensional Array of Distances

I'm receiving all distances between a random number of points in a 2 dimensional coordinate system.

How can I visualize this as coordinates on a map in my browser? In case there are many solutions I just want to see the first possible one that my algorithm can come up with.

So here's an extremely easy example:

PointCount = 3  
Distances:  
0-1 = 2  
0-2 = 4  
1-2 = 2

Does anyone know an easy way (existing solution/framework maybe) to do it using whatever is out there to make it easier to implement?
I was thinking maybe using the html canvas element for drawing, but I don't know how to create an algorithm that could come up with possible coordinates for those points.

The above example is simplified -
Real distance values could look like this:

       (0)  (1)     (2)     (3)
   (0)  0   2344    3333    10000   
   (1)      0       3566    10333   
   (2)              0       12520

Solution

I'm not sure this is relevant for SO, but anyway...

The way to do this is quite simply to place the points one by one using the data:

Pick a random location for the first point (let's say it's 0,0).
The second point is on a circle with radius d(0,1) with the first point as its center, so you can pick any point on the circle. Let's pick (d(0,1),0).
The third point is at the intersection of a circle with radius d(0,2) and center point 1, and a circle with radius d(1,2) and center point 2. You will get either 0, 1, 2 or an infinity of solutions. If the data comes from real points, 0 shouldn't happen. 1 and infinity are edge cases, but you should still handle them. Pick any of the solutions.
The fourth point is at the intersection of 3 circles. Unless you're very unlucky (but you should account for it), there should be only one solution.
Continue like this until all points have been placed.

Note that this doesn't mean you'll get the exact locations of the original points: you can have any combination of a translation (the choice of your first point), rotation (the choice of your second point) and symmetry (the choice of your third point) making the difference.

A quick and dirty implementation (not handling quite a few cases, and tested very little):

function distance(p1, p2) {
  return Math.sqrt(Math.pow(p2[0] - p1[0], 2) + Math.pow(p2[1] - p1[1], 2));
}

function intersection(x0, y0, r0, x1, y1, r1) {
  var a, dx, dy, d, h, rx, ry;
  var x2, y2;

  /* dx and dy are the vertical and horizontal distances between
   * the circle centers.
   */
  dx = x1 - x0;
  dy = y1 - y0;

  /* Determine the straight-line distance between the centers. */
  d = Math.sqrt((dy * dy) + (dx * dx));

  /* Check for solvability. */
  if (d > (r0 + r1)) {
/* no solution. circles do not intersect. */
return false;
  }
  if (d < Math.abs(r0 - r1)) {
/* no solution. one circle is contained in the other */
return false;
  }

  /* 'point 2' is the point where the line through the circle
   * intersection points crosses the line between the circle
   * centers.  
   */

  /* Determine the distance from point 0 to point 2. */
  a = ((r0 * r0) - (r1 * r1) + (d * d)) / (2.0 * d);

  /* Determine the coordinates of point 2. */
  x2 = x0 + (dx * a / d);
  y2 = y0 + (dy * a / d);

  /* Determine the distance from point 2 to either of the
   * intersection points.
   */
  h = Math.sqrt((r0 * r0) - (a * a));

  /* Now determine the offsets of the intersection points from
   * point 2.
   */
  rx = -dy * (h / d);
  ry = dx * (h / d);

  /* Determine the absolute intersection points. */
  var xi = x2 + rx;
  var xi_prime = x2 - rx;
  var yi = y2 + ry;
  var yi_prime = y2 - ry;

  return [
[xi, yi],
[xi_prime, yi_prime]
