The width or strip of land covered or imaged by the satellite
is the path area
Passive remote sensing means that the energy being collected is being provided by the environment in which you are collecting. Examples of this type of remote sensing include things as simple as taking a picture with a handheld visible spectrum camera or taking a thermal image of a person's body temperature. Active remote sensing on the other hand involves transmitting energy, allowing that energy to reflect off of the surrounding environment, and then recollecting that energy using a sensor. Examples of this type of remote sensing include sonar devices used by ships and imaging systems that use the returns from laser energy to form an image.

Data is gathered by a satellite-mounted sensor and are recorded as a series of numbers. I got this from my earth science text book. Hope I helped! :)

Some psychics have helped solve murder cases on some programs but there is no mention of sensing murder solving cases.

Remote Sensing Center was created in 2006-09.
Remote sensing transmits energy that allows an image to be formed. Passive remote sensing collects energy that is reflected or emitted from a surface.
Indian Institute of Remote Sensing was created in 1966.
Pakistan Remote Sensing Satellite was created in 2011.
Explain how the remote sensing satellites examined the earth from the space?
What are some non-satellite remote sensing technology?
Remote sensing
Passive remote sensing picks up wave lengths of the light spectrum occurring on their own such light in photography. Active remote sensing will send out a wavelength of the spectrum and measure how it bounces back like radar.
The platforms that harbor remote sensing sensors (eg. cameras) are called remote sensing platforms. In earlier days, during military reconnaissance, pigeons attached with cameras were made to fly over areas of interest. In this case the platform is the bird. Balloons, airplanes and satellites that carry remote sensing sensors are examples of remote sensing platforms.
Active remote sensing uses its own electromagnetic radiation and use microwaves. It maps areas hard to map.
