Collaboration Updates

This is the second installment in the ESIP Innovator series. This interview is with Roberto De Almeida, PyDap creator and recently, Ocean Data Engineer at MarinExplore. Rob's background is as a Ph.D. oceanographer and climate scientist, but he became a tool developer to reduce hurdles that scientist face – very ESIP! For more on his bio, check out this interview he did with MarinExplore when he joined.

We talked about the science data as big data, a bit of tech talk about MarinExplore.org and wrapped up talking about the evolution of PyDap. You can find Rob on the web here: http://blog.dealmeida.net/
