We combine space group representation theory together with scanning of closed subdomains of the Brillouin zone with Wilson loops to algebraically determine global band structure topology. Considering space group #19 as a case study, we show that the energy ordering of the irreducible representations at the high-symmetry points $\{\Gamma,S,T,U\}$ fully determines the global band topology, with all topological classes characterized through their simple and double Dirac-points.
