In this article we review the methods we have developed for finding Mechanical Turk participants for the manual annotation of the geo-location of random videos from the web. ...
This task is different from a standard Mechanical Turk task in that it is difficult for both humans and machines, whereas a standard Mechanical Turk task is usually easy for humans and difficult or impossible ...
