 The columns correspond to the orbitals present in the basis set (hence //projected// DOS). Normally you would now do a convolution plot using a gaussian to get a smooth DOS, but instead you can also simply plot it in a scatter or vertical line plot. The columns correspond to the orbitals present in the basis set (hence //projected// DOS).

 +Please also note the unit of the energy, it is in $E_h$. When looking at DOS plots you may want to convert it to Electronvolt instead.
