This might be a specialized question and hopefully people working in this area know it. I need to get atomic coordinates for a specific crystal in SpringerMaterial. It however gives two different coordinates, standardized and published coordinates. I looked through the website can cannot find a precise definition towards them. Can anybody help me with that?

The standardized coordinates are the coordinates used to describe a given crystal structure in a consistent manner, independent of any particular reference frame. These coordinates are generated as part of a standardization procedure that is used to ensure that all descriptions of the same crystal structure will have the same atomic coordinates, regardless of the reference frame used. The published coordinates are the coordinates used by the authors of the paper that first described the crystal structure. These coordinates may be different from the standardized coordinates depending on the reference frame used by the authors.
