The geographic area over which a satellite antenna receives or directs its signals. There is often a collection of concentric footprints, each representing a particular satellite EIRP or G/T. These quantities can be related to the size of the antenna that is needed on the ground to receive or transmit a particular service respectively.
In building measurement, the outside dimensions of a building describing the amount of space it occupies on the ground. This figure is usually expressed in “square feet” of space. A one-story building measuring 500' x 200' has a 10,000 sq.ft. footprint. A 10-story building of the same dimensions has the same sized footprint even though it is a much larger building.
The area occupied by a device mounted on a substrate.

The area a machine takes up in the clean room. This is important because clean room space is expensive, and so minimizing the footprint of a machine is a good thing to do. There are two numbers that semiconductor manufacturers are interested in -- the footprint and the linear frontage number (length of the front of the machine). The linear frontage number affects how many machines will fit into a bay since the machines are all lined up side-by-side.

This is the area a shredder will take up. If space is an issue, a smaller footprint may be required.
When a satellite in orbit beams its signal back to earth, it can only reach a portion of the earth's surface. This portion is called a footprint. Therefore, to receive a satellite signal, you must be inside the footprint. However, companies like Direct TV have managed to cover a massive portion of the globe by launching six individual satellites. Because of the altitude of the satellite and its geosynchronis orbit, this is a lot of ground.
The geographical area covered by a particular satellite. See coverage.
The geographic region of the earth that can receive signals transmitted from a communications satellite.
In building measurement, the outside dimensions of a building describing the amount of space it occupies on the ground. This figure is usually expressed in square feet of space.

How much of the Earth a satellite can see is dependent on the satellite's altitude. NOAA polar orbiting satellites orbit at an altitude of ~800km, and from that height can view a circle of the Earth around 6000km wide. The area of the Earth that can be seen by a particular satellite, is known as the satellite's footprint. If one checks the current whereabouts of NOAA 12 and NOAA 15, the footprints are indicated by the circles drawn around the satellite. If one checks the current whereabouts of NOAA 17 , the image presented shows only NOAA-17's footprint, and monitoring this particular image demonstrates just how much of the Earth is covered by ocean.

Images on web pages are commonly stored in the GIF or JPEG formats. Hosting: the service providing internet connections for e-learning or e-commerce.
This is a somewhat nebulous term that describes how completely a company has covered a given market. Stores with large footprints usually have a market covered. For instance, Gap has a large U.S. footprint, meaning that its stores are accessible to most consumers in the U.S. Generally speaking, companies with large footprints have less room to grow sales by opening new stores, while companies with small footprints should be able to grow quickly by expanding their store base. (Note: Some companies use "footprint" to describe the physical area of a store. For instance, Gap refers to large and small footprint stores, where large footprint stores would be the 15,000 square-foot flagship stores and small footprint stores would be 3000-4,000 square foot stores in small malls.)
Geographic area covered by satellite signal. Usually the signal is strongest at the center of the footprint and grows progressively weaker toward the edges.

One footprint may cover the entire United States, as may be the case with a satellite distributing television programming for cable companies, while another footprint may be concentrated in a very narrow area measuring less than 150 miles in diameter. The last category of satellite footprint is called a spot beam.
The coverage area of the earth's surface within which the signals of a specific satellite can be received.
The footprint of a device refers to how much space it will take up if placed on a desk top or floor.
The region on the earth to which a communications satellite can transmit.
A map of the signal strength showing the EIRP contours of equal signal strengths as they cover the earth's surface. Different satellite transponders on the same satellite will often have different footprints of the signal strength. The accuracy of EIRP footprints or contour data can improve with the operational age of the satellite. The actual EIRP levels of the satellite, however, tends to decrease slowly as the spacecraft ages.

The footprint of a satellite is the ground area that its transponders cover, and determines the satellite dish diameter required to receive each transponder's signal. There is usually a different map for each transponder (or group of transponders) as each may be aimed to cover different areas of the ground.
