The direction in which the stiffness, strength, tension or installed orientation ofa geosynthetic is stated: machine, cross-machine, normal to the layer, or in theplane of the layer. Shared by the design value(diggs:DesignGeosyntheticLayerType/direction) and the as-built value(diggs:GeosyntheticType/direction), so that the stated orientation of an installedlayer can be compared with the design value that governs it.

enumeration
machine
The direction of manufacture (roll) of the geosynthetic.
enumeration
cross machine
The direction perpendicular to the machine direction.
enumeration
normal
Perpendicular to the plane of the layer, through its thickness.
enumeration
planar
In the plane of the layer, without distinction between the machine andcross-machine directions.
