In order for the sensor to capture and record reflected or emitted energy from a target it must reside on a stable platform which can be on the ground (hand held camera), within the atmosphere (airplanes), and in space (the space shuttle or satellite).

A platform is a non-physical digital place that provides several companies with the technological infrastructure to offer or provide their products and services.

The computing operating system hardware, a web browser or digital environment that runs software encompasses specific requirements, affordances, and limitations.

The technology that facilitates the rental, lending of good and services in the platform economy.

A platform is a set of software components or hardware subsystems, with related technologies that provides a set of precise functionality defined via interfaces and usage patterns. Components supported by that platform can interact and execute without being aware for the details of how the functionality provided by the platform is implemented.

A platform represents a subsystem or a set of subsystems that provide certain functionality.
