    This document discusses a project using geomattresses to control river bank erosion in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Geomattresses provide a green, economical alternative to traditional rip-rap revetments for erosion control. They allow for rapid construction and over 10 km of riverbanks have been protected using this method. The geomattresses are tubular structures that can be filled with sand on site to stabilize riverbanks.
