Hello! I researched about geotextiles but they vary in sizes. Now, I'd like to know the average measurements of every roll of erosion control geotextile.
 
I researched them as well but ended up reading information on how to measure geotextiles. But this may be come in handy for you.

NOTE: Measurements depend on the type of the fabric
