More specifically, the cognitive location and navigation services include, but are not limited to beacon-based communication with vehicles. For instance, a method includes: summoning a vehicle to a designated position; communicating with one or more location sensors deployed throughout a location including the designated position; determining a user has exited a building at the location based on the communication with the one or more location sensors; and transmitting a position of the user to the summoned vehicle. Notably, the position of the user is accurate to within 10 inches. Corresponding systems and computer program products are also disclosed.
