Inputs

az, el, slantrange: look angles and distance to point under test (degrees, degrees, meters)
az: azimuth clockwise from local north
el: elevation angle above local horizon
angleUnit: string for angular units. Default 'd': degrees

Outputs

north, east, down: coordinates of points (meters)

function [north, east, down] = aer2ned(az, el, slantRange, angleUnit)
if nargin < 4
  angleUnit = 'd';
end

[east, north, up] = matmap3d.aer2enu(az, el, slantRange, angleUnit);

down = -up;

end
