What are Temporary Forest Engineers?

Temporary Forest Engineers are professionals who are hired on a short-term basis to assist with various forestry projects, such as designing and planning roads, harvesting operations, or environmental assessments. They typically work for logging companies, government agencies, or consulting firms, and their duties may involve fieldwork, drafting, mapping, and project management.
