AUTOMATIC DIGITAL CURATION AND TAGGING OF ACTION VIDEOS

A system and method for automatic digital curation, annotation, and tagging of action videos receives, in a processing system, GPS data, and in some embodiments inertial data, from a sensor-based device carried by a sportsman during a sporting activity. The processing system processes the GPS data and the inertial data, if present to identify at least one sportsman event, and stores data identifying the sportsman event in a performance database. Video data from a video camera is stored in a video database, the video data including location, time, and direction information associated with frames of video. Timecode data in the video database is synchronized with timecode data in the performance database, and the data identifying the sportsman event is used to automatically select, annotate, tag or edit said video data.
