Any tool or plugin for JOSM to reduce density of nodes on a way

0

I see a highway that has many nodes, seems is a direct conversion from GPX. Is there any way to immediately remove extra nodes? sth like FastDraw plugin, but for a highway that already exists.

Yes, Simplify Way.

You might want to tune the advanced parameter simplify-way.max-error as explained in this question.

Since this question has just been bumped anyway, it is probably worth mentioning that this function now asks for a maximum error at time of execution, so there should now be no need for parameter tweaking.
