If you just want to view your data on a map try GPS Visualizer.  It will
recognise .CSV files, but you may have to specify the format.

You could also try using gpsbabel (free software) to convert your CSV file
to GPX.  The GPX file can be loaded into JOSM, or many other mapping
programs.

Have fun!
