trajSetMatch.m

function traj = trajSetMatch(traj, position, active_section)
% trajSetMatch sets the nearest point on the trajectory.
%   The current trajectory section and the dimensionless time
%   parameter are set to the point with minimum euclidean distance in
%   respect to the given vehicle position.
%
% Inputs:
%   traj                trajectory struct, see trajInit
%
%   position            vehicle position [x; y; z] in local geodetic
%                       coordinate system
%                       (3x1 vector), in m
%
%   active_section      *placeholder for later use*
%                       current section of the trajectory
%                       (scalar), dimensionless
%
% Outputs:
%   traj                trajectory struct, see trajInit
%
