## Overview
We introduce the Walking Tours dataset (WTours), a unique collection of long-range egocentric videos captured in an urban setting from various cities in Europe and Asia. It consists of 10 high-resolution videos, each showcasing a person walking through different urban environments, ranging from city centers to parks to residential areas under different lighting conditions. Additionally, a video from a Wildlife safari is included to diversify the dataset.
## Cities Covered
The dataset encompasses walks through the following cities:
- Amsterdam
- Bangkok
- Chiang Mai
- Istanbul
- Kuala Lumpur
- Singapore
- Stockholm
- Venice
- Zurich
## Video Specifications
- **Resolution:** 4K (3840 × 2160 pixels)
- **Frame Rate:** 60 frames-per-second
- **License:** Creative Commons License (CC-BY)
## Duration
The videos vary in duration, offering a diverse range of content:
- Minimum Duration: 59 minutes (Wildlife safari)
- Maximum Duration: 2 hours 55 minutes (Bangkok)
- Average Duration: 1 hour 38 minutes
## Download the Dataset
The complete list of WTour videos are available in ```WTour.txt```, comprising the YouTube link and the corresponding city.
To download the dataset, we first install **pytube**
```
pip install pytube
```
then, we run
```
python download_WTours.py --output_folder <path_to_folder>
```
In order to comply with [GDPR](https://gdpr.eu/what-is-gdpr/), we also try to blur out all faces and license plates appearing in the video using [Deface](https://github.com/ORB-HD/deface)
To do this for all videos in WTour dataset:
```
python3 -m pip install deface
```
Then run Deface on all videos using the bash script:
```
chmod a+x gdpr_blur_faces.sh
./gdpr_blur_faces.sh
```
