The Polar Regions are undergoing significant environmental and social change. Changes in the Arctic in particular have implications for the prosperity, welfare, health, and national security of the United States and all nations. Understanding, adapting to, and possibly benefiting from these changes requires that scientists, governments, Arctic residents, and society as a whole work together to enhance understanding and generate action at scales from local to international. In support of understanding and action, the importance of polar data and its proper management are increasingly being recognized by governments, the science community, and society. The Polar Data Planning Summit will bring together key actors from around the world to contribute to the design and implementation of and integrated and well-defined polar network that enable access to high- quality data, expertise, and information. This will place the United States in a leadership role in developing a data network that will support enhanced scientific understanding, national security, meeting stakeholder needs, and improved agency operations.The Polar Data Planning Summit will host more than twenty representatives from key polar data programs and projects from around the world. An international steering committee will work with the local organizing committee to establish and agenda that prioritizes concrete work planning and particularly the coordination of various activities being carried out under different projects. The result will be a collectively developed road map outlining a world-wide system that will provide researchers, Arctic residents, decision makers and others with access to the vast majority of polar data. This will include a coordinated, integrated work plan identifying goals, objectives, and associated existing and emerging funded projects and programs. The outcomes of the Summit will be disseminated at major meetings such as the POLAR 2018/Arctic Observing Summit 2018 meetings in Davos, Switzerland, and the next Arctic Science Ministerial expected in the Fall of 2018.

极地地区正在经历重大的环境和社会变化。北极的变化尤其对美国和所有国家的繁荣、福利、健康和国家安全产生影响。理解、适应并可能从这些变化中受益，需要科学家、政府、北极居民和整个社会共同努力，加强理解，并在从地方到国际的规模上采取行动。为了支持理解和行动，各国政府、科学界和社会日益认识到极地数据及其适当管理的重要性。极地数据规划峰会将汇集来自世界各地的主要参与者，为设计和实施一个集成的、定义良好的极地网络做出贡献，使人们能够获得高质量的数据、专业知识和信息。这将使美国在发展数据网络方面处于领导地位，该网络将支持加强科学理解、国家安全、满足利益相关者需求和改进机构运作。本次极地数据规划峰会将邀请20多位来自全球重点极地数据计划和项目的代表参加。一个国际指导委员会将与当地组织委员会合作，制定议程，确定具体工作规划的优先次序，特别是在不同项目下进行的各种活动的协调。结果将是一个共同制定的路线图，勾勒出一个全球系统，为研究人员、北极居民、决策者和其他人提供获取绝大多数极地数据的途径。这将包括一个协调的、综合的工作计划，确定目标、目的，以及相关的现有的和新出现的资助项目和计划。峰会的成果将在重要会议上传播，如在瑞士达沃斯举行的2018年极地会议/ 2018年北极观测峰会，以及预计将于2018年秋季举行的下一届北极科学部长级会议。
