What I do is:<BR>
- Take my gpx-,mps-,...-tracks<BR>
- convert and filter them with something like<BR>
osm-filter.pl --out-osm --use_reduce_filter gpx-*.gpx<BR>
- load the resulting osm File into josm<BR>
- in josm edit it as of deleting duplicates, glitches, ...<BR>
- then tell josm to upload that to the Server.<BR>
