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 120 atoms drawn above are these sites multiplied by all 16 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
AB2_oI120_74_h2j_aef2i3j-001: the stoichiometry comes first (A, B, C… are the elements in alphabetical order of their site labels), then the Pearson symbol oI120, then the space-group number 74, then the Wyckoff letters occupied by each element in turn (O: 4a; O: 4e; O: 8f; Al: 8h; O: 8i; O: 8i; Al: 16j; Al: 16j; O: 16j; O: 16j; O: 16j). Two structures with the same label are the same arrangement with different cell parameters or coordinates.
Note: Disordered AlPO₄-11.
