Geotextile wani nau'in abu ne na geosynthetic tare da manyan ayyuka masu zuwa:
Tasirin keɓewa: Rarraba sassa daban-daban na ƙasa don samar da tsayayyen tsaka-tsaki, ta yadda kowane tsarin tsarin zai iya ba da cikakkiyar wasa ga aikinsa.
Tasirin kariya: geotextile na iya taka rawar kariya da buffer zuwa ƙasa ko saman ruwa.
Tasirin rigakafin gani: geotextile haɗe tare da haɗaɗɗun abubuwan geomaterials na iya guje wa ɓarnawar ruwa da juzu'in iskar gas, tabbatar da amincin muhalli da gine-gine1.
Injiniyan tanadin ruwa: ana amfani da shi don sarrafa magudanar ruwa, ƙarfafawa, keɓewa, tacewa, magudanar ruwa, madatsun ruwa, tashoshi, koguna, bangon teku da sauran ayyukan.
Injiniyan hanya: ana amfani da shi don ƙarfafawa, keɓewa, tacewa, magudanar ruwa na gindin hanya, saman hanya, gangara, rami, gada da sauran ayyukan.
Injiniyan hakar ma'adinai: ana amfani da shi don rigakafin gani, ƙarfafawa, keɓewa, tacewa, magudanar ruwa daga ƙasan rami mai ma'adinai, bangon rami, yadi, tafkin wutsiya da sauran ayyukan.
Injiniyan Gine-gine: ana amfani da shi don hana ruwa, sarrafa ruwa, keɓewa, tacewa, magudanar ruwa na ƙasa, rami, gada, ƙarƙashin ƙasa da sauran ayyukan.
Injiniyan aikin gona: ana amfani da su wajen ban ruwa, kiyaye ƙasa, gyaran ƙasa, kiyaye ruwa na gonaki, da sauransu.
A taƙaice, geotextile yana da nau'ikan aikace-aikace masu yawa a fannoni da yawa, abu ne mai ƙarfi da aiki da yawa.
