Abstract
The symmetry classification of three-dimensional periodic or aperiodic crystals is given a coordinate independent formulation which establis hes the precise connection between Fourier-space and superspace crysta llography. Superspace groups emerge without having to embed an aperiod ic crystal in a higher-dimensional space.
