Case Study: McKenzie Intelligence Services achieves 24/7 disaster analysis efficiency with Astronomer, Inc.'s Airflow platform

How McKenzie Intelligence Services Transformed Catastrophe Assessment to 24/7 Operations

McKenzie Intelligence Services, a catastrophe assessment and intelligence company, needed a better way to process global disaster data and imagery for risk, exposure, and claims management. Before working with Astronomer, Inc. and its Airflow-based platform, the team relied on manual steps and ad-hoc scripts, which caused inconsistent data processing, limited visibility, and slow turnaround times for large imagery and ETL workflows.

Astronomer, Inc. helped McKenzie Intelligence Services migrate these processes into automated Airflow DAGs with centralized logging, monitoring, and support, enabling 24/7 operations. The result was a tripling of efficiency, large imagery processing reduced from half a day or more to background execution, and critical infrastructure issues remediated in under an hour, with plans to scale further using more automated workflows and faster model processing.
