A vehicle parked within a parking facility is found by first tracing a path from the vehicle to an entrance of the facility, using a portable electronic device that records data describing the path from movements of the device. Then, the path is retraced to return to the vehicle, with the device displaying a map of the path and a symbol indicating the current location of the device. Alternately, a portable radio beacon device is left in the vehicle to be turned on remotely by the portable electronic device, which then displays an indication of a direction from which signal from the beacon device is being received.
