After a 5-year mandate as director of the cluster, Gilbert Maudire, Ifremer, is handing over his position to Erwann Quimbert, also based at Ifremer since 2010.

Erwann Quimbert was selected for his expertise, motivation and strategic vision for ODATIS.

Erwann Quimbert is already familiar with the ecosystem through his experience as administrator of the Sextant marine and coastal geographic data infrastructure and as co-leader of multiple national and European projects. He is therefore the new pilot for the development of the cluster, its operation and the dissemination of the services offered to users.
