It's possible! Currently this is running GROUP BY queries using Socrata's query API on the original government data portal. We're adding the ability to import data from these sources into a columnar format in the future, either into Splitgraph itself or syncing the data out into Seafowl (https://seafowl.io/) which uses Parquet and is much faster.
Technically, the ability is already there (you can add a dataset to Splitgraph and select Socrata as a source if you know the dataset ID), but it's not as turnkey as landing on a dataset page and clicking a button. More to come!

It's a little slow. Any way you can speed it up?
Always a fan of splitgraph.
