Abstract

A method for guiding a motor vehicle in a parking facility encompasses steps of ascertaining, externally to the motor vehicle, a trajectory in the parking facility from a starting position to a destination position; transmitting at least a segment of the trajectory to the motor vehicle via a communication network; and monitoring the motor vehicle, by way of a monitoring system external to the motor vehicle, as the segment is traversed, to determine a deviation, the trajectory being ascertained as a function of a property of the motor vehicle. Also described are a corresponding apparatus, a parking system, and a computer program.
