  This paper is the first work to perform spatio-temporal mapping of human
activity using the visual content of geo-tagged videos. We utilize a recent
deep-learning based video analysis framework, termed hidden two-stream
networks, to recognize a range of activities in YouTube videos. This framework
is efficient and can run in real time or faster which is important for
recognizing events as they occur in streaming video or for reducing latency in
analyzing already captured video. This is, in turn, important for using video
in smart-city applications. We perform a series of experiments to show our
approach is able to accurately map activities both spatially and temporally. We
also demonstrate the advantages of using the visual content over the
tags/titles.
