The remote automatic parking support system includes a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a smart key or a smartphone of a driver positioned extraneous to a vehicle and in the second mode, automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a switch mounted within the vehicle. The vehicle is guided in first mode or the second mode based on a surrounding environment, thereby providing optimal convenience to the driver. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method for guiding a vehicle in a parking mode in a remote automatic parking support system, comprising: detecting, by a processor, a surrounding environment when a parking space is detected; guiding, by the processor, the vehicle in a first parking mode in which automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a driver terminal positioned extraneous to a vehicle or a second mode in which automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a switch mounted within the vehicle, based on the detected surrounding environment; and performing, by the processor, automatic parking in a parking mode selected by a driver. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, wherein, in the detecting of the surrounding environment, at least one selected from the group consisting of: a width of the parking space, a weather condition, an outdoor temperature, and a parking state of a neighbor vehicle is detected. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The method according to claim 2, wherein, in the guiding of the vehicle, when the width of the parking space is less than a reference value, the vehicle is guided in the first parking mode. ### Claim 4 (depends on 2) The method according to claim 2, wherein, in the guiding of the vehicle, when rain is detected, when the outdoor temperature exceeds a first threshold value, and when the outdoor temperature is less than a second threshold value, the vehicle is guided in the second parking mode. ### Claim 5 (depends on 2) The method according to claim 2, wherein, in the performing of the automatic parking, front end parking or back-in parking is automatically selected based on the parking state of the neighbor vehicle. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, wherein, in the automatic parking, when an auto-hold function of the vehicle is in an ON state, the auto-hold function is automatically released and automatic parking is performed. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, wherein, in the automatic parking, when automatic parking ends, park-position shifting is performed and an engine of the vehicle is subsequently turned off. ### Claim 8 A remote automatic parking support system for a vehicle, comprising: an input part configured to receive a selection signal regarding a parking mode from a driver terminal located extraneous to the vehicle; a controller configured to guide the vehicle in a first parking mode in which automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from the driver terminal or a second parking mode in which automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a switch mounted within the vehicle based on a surrounding environment; a sensor configured to detect the surrounding environment; and a display configured to output the first parking mode or the second parking mode. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The system of claim 8, wherein the surrounding environment detected by the sensor includes at least one selected from the group consisting of: a width of the parking space, a weather condition, an outdoor temperature, and a parking state of a neighbor vehicle is detected. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The system of claim 9, wherein when the width of the parking space is less than a reference value, the controller is configured to guide the vehicle in the first parking mode. ### Claim 11 (depends on 9) The system of claim 9, wherein when rain is detected, when the outdoor temperature exceeds a first threshold value, and when the outdoor temperature is less than a second threshold value, the controller is configured to guide the vehicle in the second parking mode. ### Claim 12 (depends on 9) The system of claim 9, wherein front end parking or back-in parking is automatically selected based on the parking state of the neighbor vehicle. ### Claim 13 A non-transitory computer readable medium containing program instructions executed by a processor for guiding a vehicle in a parking mode in a remote automatic parking support system, the computer readable medium comprising: program instructions that detect a surrounding environment when a parking space is detected; program instructions that guide the vehicle in a first parking mode in which automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a driver terminal positioned extraneous to a vehicle or a second mode in which automatic parking is performed based on a parking request from a switch mounted within the vehicle, based on the detected surrounding environment; and program instructions that perform automatic parking in a parking mode selected by a driver. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 13, wherein the surrounding environment includes at least one selected from the group consisting of: a width of the parking space, a weather condition, an outdoor temperature, and a parking state of a neighbor vehicle is detected. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 14, further comprising: program instructions that guide the vehicle in the first parking mode when the width of the parking space is less than a reference value. ### Claim 16 (depends on 14) The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 14, further comprising: program instructions that guide the vehicle in the second parking mode when rain is detected, when the outdoor temperature exceeds a first threshold value, and when the outdoor temperature is less than a second threshold value. ### Claim 17 (depends on 14) The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 14, wherein front end parking or back-in parking is automatically selected based on the parking state of the neighbor vehicle.
