The fractal geometry can describe many irregular and fragmented structures, that can­not be described by Euclidean geometry. It has considerable aplications such as in soil pores and perme­ability modeling. But scientific aplication in nonwoven needle geotextile is very few. Important concepts of the fractal geometry-the fractal dimension and the fractals are presented in this paper. Its aplication in nonwoven needle geotextile is discussed. Eelevant computer programs are written using electronic mi­croradiograph of geotextile and fractal geometry theory to obtain the fractals and fractal dimension of non woven needle geotextile. In logarithmic coordinate, comparison of pore radius r of nonwoven needle geotextile with the frequency of pore radius larger than r shows a good linear ralation. This shows that the distribution of pore radius has a fractal structure.
