I would say they are both highly advanced and are used for tracking things/people but a satellite is more advanced with being able to live in and what not

How does the Australian Bureau of Meteorology collect up-to-the minute information on the weather in order to produce reliable forecasts?
There are four levels in the process. Firstly, the information is collected from various channels such as satellite, drifting buoys and radar station. Then, the data that is collected from those sources will be analyzed and forecast. There are three different ways to present those data. Satellite photos are created by satellite station. Also, radar screens and synoptic charts are created by radar stations and drifting buoys respectively. Drift buoys can receive info from both satellites and radar stations, while information collected by radar stations can come through satellite only. Next, those collected information will be processed and prepared by computers before it is broadcast. Television, radio and recorded announcements are usually used to broadcast the weather. Weather forecasts are important in many fields such as aviation and sailing. Thus, producing reliable weather forecasts is of great importance.
Can a satellite be larger than a planet?
no bcuz it takes common sense to answer that
What three ways are hurricanes observed and tracked?
Hurricanes are observed and tracked by satellite, by specialized planes called hurricane hunters, and b surface observations by buoys at sea and radar on land.
What is the tool that scientists use to classify the wind speed of hurricane?
Scientists can use anemometers and Doppler radar to measure winds directly. It is also possible to estimate wind speeds with satellite imagery of cloud tops.
What is the difference between a natural and an artificial satellite?
An artificial satellite is a man-made object injected into orbit around another object (The Space Station is an artificial satellite of the Earth). A natural satellite is a "natural" object that orbits around another object (The Moon is a natural satellite of the Earth).
What is a satellite meter?
A satellite- meter takes radar images of faults.
What plant are known only through satellite radar mapping?
weed
How do gps satellites monitor faults?
satellite equipped with radar
What are some of the reception problems you have with satellite tv?
Some common reception problems with satellite tv could be- bad weather, tree blockage, objects sticking to your Dish, radar interference, dysfunctional distribution amplifier and locked up receivers.
What technology did the scientists use in the film The Day after Tomorrow?

A method of sending energy waves from a satellite to an area of earth being observed is?
radar;radar means :the transfer of energy as electromagnetic waves.
What is the difference between Radio detection and ranging and Radio detection and ranging satellite?
The Difference is that Radar Satellites are just a more advanced version of Radar.
Name a piece of technology you would never have seen on the titanic?
Radar. Satellite navigation.
What devices are used to detect Tropical Storms?
you would use a weather satellite or doppler radar.
What are two uses o satellite in low polar orbit?
Primarily photo or radar reconnaissance.
