[OSM-newbies] Editing a gps trace

[Rajkumar S]

Hi,

I have just started contributing to osm. I have a gps device and
uploaded a trace at
http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Rajkumar%20S/traces/590571

Now I want to edit this data and add to osm. As I understand I need to
open this trace in  JOSM add nodes and connect them to create ways.
But adding nodes to a gps trace is tedious esp if the way is not
straight.

Is there a way to turn gps trace to ways automatically so that I can
just concentrate on adding information than click on the map adding
nodes just to create ways??

with regards,

raj
