About e-DOT

Born in 2004, eDOT developed the first advanced digital marine barge tracking system for the rivers of Goa – much before the advent of commercial GPS & GPRS solutions. We have never looked back since.

Today, the eDOT team is made up of an experienced and passionate bunch of maritime professionals, developers, designers, and UX researchers with deep insight into data, technology, and business. The team has grown, with offices in Goa - India, as well as in Philadelphia and Houston in the United States & in Singapore. While the eDOT strength has grown, the core team of 2004 has remained intact, as has the philosophy of scrupulous integrity, complete transparency & ruthless planning, which works in delivering projects on time – all the time – all of which in keeping with the NO TENSION & ALL TALENT work environment. The eDOT guiding principle - Success follows Happiness, rather than the other way round.
