The multiplicity and the Wyckoff letter say how many copies of the site the group makes in one cell and on which kind of symmetry element the site sits; the 48 atoms drawn above are these sites multiplied by all 8 operations. Press Wyckoff under Colour to see the sites, and tick a symmetry element on the left to see which atoms lie on it.
How to read the label
A4B2C13D4E_tP48_90_g_d_cef2g_g_c-001: the stoichiometry comes first (A, B, C… are the elements in alphabetical order of their site labels), then the Pearson symbol tP48, then the space-group number 90, then the Wyckoff letters occupied by each element in turn (O: 2c; Ti: 2c; Na: 4d; O: 4e; O: 4f; H: 8g; O: 8g; O: 8g; Si: 8g). Two structures with the same label are the same arrangement with different cell parameters or coordinates.
