Has anyone applied the Addsym algorithm (reimplementation
of the Yvon LePage algorithm) from Platon to
the ICSD database in the same way Ton Spek tested out
a subset of the Cambridge database?
There is a page on the Platon site showing some of the
results on the Cambridge database. Many possible
misassigned spaceg4roups could be found very
automatically.
for info on Addsym and Platon, check:

Includes link to:
PLATON/ADDSYM analysis of all 1970 Cc structures
in the CSD (apr 1999).
