Biography
Danie Kinkade is an Information Systems Specialist at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, where she serves as the PI and Director of the Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO), a disciplinary data repository supporting the oceanographic research community. A former marine biologist, Danie holds a master’s degree in marine science and possesses over 25 years of experience managing oceanographic data. Her current research lies at the intersection of information and oceanographic sciences, where focus on data curation and publication using novel technologies and disciplinary best practices facilitates open science. She is active in community efforts to advance the field of data management and has served in a leadership capacity for several geoscience data-related programs and consortia such as the US Council of Data Facilities (CDF), the NSF EarthCube Program, the Coalition for Publishing Data in the Earth and Space Sciences (COPDESS), Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP), and the American Geophysical Union’s Informatics Section, in addition to serving as investigator on several grant-sponsored cyberinfrastructure and data management education projects.
