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 20 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

AB3C_oP20_62_c_cd_a-001: the stoichiometry comes first (A, B, C… are the elements in alphabetical order of their site labels), then the Pearson symbol oP20, then the space-group number 62, then the Wyckoff letters occupied by each element in turn (Ti: 4a; Ca: 4c; O: 4c; O: 8d). Two structures with the same label are the same arrangement with different cell parameters or coordinates.
