Is there any indication that force sensitive people can be detected at a distance at all?
There are suggestions in Legends. The cave near Yoda is full of the dark side, and with Yoda living there, it looks neutral from a distance. There’s also a device found that can scan someone and show their “force aura”.
Disney canon hasn’t gone that route. You can do a blood test for midichlorians. Jedi might be able to intuit someone’s force sensitivity by watching and testing them (as a Bad Batch episode recently did). But there’s nothing to indicate force sensitives can be detected at a distance, either by trained force sensitives or by technology.
But at the same time, you had a lot of moments where Jedi felt the death of a loved one, or where Anakin Ahsoka/Obi-Wan/Yoda felt him going to the dark side.
