Abstract: A method for automatic stop comprises: acquiring a target distance correction value, wherein the target distance correction value is determined according to a historical parking error value before a target moment, and the target moment is the time when the target distance correction value is stored; correcting an acquired target distance value according to the target distance correction value, so as to obtain a corrected target distance value, wherein the target distance value is the value of the distance between the current position of a vehicle and a target parking position; and according to the corrected target distance value, executing the present instance of automatic parking. An automatic parking apparatus may be used to carry out such a method.
