I would like to find out how many advertising spaces owned or co-owned by Transport for London (bus shelter spaces run by JC Decaux / Clear Channel; exterion spaces inside underground station) currently have image/face-recognition technology installed. Can you also tell me, in numbers or a percentage, what the planned increase of the technology is for the next ten years?
