Geotextile ni ubwoko bwa geosintetike hamwe nibikorwa byingenzi bikurikira:
Ingaruka yo kwigunga: Tandukanya imiterere yubutaka butandukanye kugirango uhuze intera ihamye, kugirango buri cyiciro cyimiterere gishobora gutanga umukino wuzuye mubikorwa byacyo.
Ingaruka zo gukingira: geotextile irashobora kugira uruhare mukurinda na buffer kubutaka cyangwa hejuru yubutaka.
Ingaruka zo gukumira imyanda: geotextile ihujwe na geomateriali yibintu irashobora kwirinda amazi yinjira hamwe na gaze ihindagurika, bikarinda umutekano wibidukikije ninyubako1.
Ubwubatsi bwo kubungabunga amazi: bukoreshwa mugucunga amazi, gushimangira, kwigunga, kuyungurura, kuvoma ibigega, ingomero, imiyoboro, inzuzi, inyanja nindi mishinga.
Ubwubatsi bwo mumuhanda: bukoreshwa mugushimangira, kwigunga, kuyungurura, kuvoma ibishingwe kumuhanda, hejuru yumuhanda, ahahanamye, umuhanda, ikiraro nindi mishinga.
Ubucukuzi bw'amabuye y'agaciro: bukoreshwa mu kurwanya anti-seepage, gushimangira, kwigunga, kuyungurura, kuvoma umwobo wo munsi y'ubucukuzi bw'amabuye y'agaciro, urukuta rw'imyobo, imbuga, ikizenga umurizo n'indi mishinga.
Ubwubatsi bwubwubatsi: bukoreshwa mugutwara amazi, kugenzura amazi, kwigunga, kuyungurura, kuvoma hasi, umuyoboro, ikiraro, munsi yubutaka nindi mishinga.
Ubwubatsi mu buhinzi: bukoreshwa mu kuhira amazi, kubungabunga ubutaka, gutunganya ubutaka, kubungabunga amazi y’imirima, n'ibindi.
Muncamake, geotextile ifite intera nini ya porogaramu mubice byinshi, ni ibikoresho bikomeye kandi byinshi-bikora.
