The Novametrics story began at Princeton University, when several years of research seminars focusing on Climate Change, Conflict and Poverty in Africa developed signal-processing methodologies and applied them to topics in conflict. Incorporating statistical analyses and data fusion methods further developed the model. Then in September 2013 Novametrics was born with an Innovative Research award from the United States Office of the Secretary of Defense. Since then the team has been working on expansion, refining and customizing methodologies, and pivoting itself towards becoming a meaningful service in the current decision making landscape.
