(1) Galaxy name (ordered by RA);
(2) source of the rotation curve data. B represents Broeils (\cite{Broeils92}),
dBB is de Blok \& Bosma (\cite{deBlok02}), 
SG means Spekkens \& Giovanelli (\cite{Spekkens06}),
SMBB is Swaters et~al.\ (\cite{Swaters03}a), and VS means Verheijen \& Sancisi (\cite{Verheijen01});
(3) the adopted distance, taken from the original papers;
(4) the absolute $R$-band magnitude;
(5) the morphological type according to the RC3 catalog (de~Vaucouleurs et~al.\ \cite{deVaucouleurs91}), using the same coding;
(6) and (7) the disk scale length and the $R$-band central disk surface
brightness. Optical data are from Paper~II for the dBB and SMBB data, from
Verheijen (\cite{Verheijen97}) for the VS data, from Spekkens \& Giovanelli (\cite{Spekkens06}) for the
SG data, and from Broeils (\cite{Broeils92}) for the B~data. The data from Broeils (\cite{Broeils92}) 
are in the $B$-band. These were converted to $R$-band assuming $B-R=1.0$.
(8) to (11) the rotation velocities at one, two, three and four disk
scale lengths;
(12) and (13) the rotation velocity at the
last measured point and the radius of the last measured point;
(14), (15) and (16) the logarithmic shape
of the rotation curve between one and two disk scale lengths, between
two and three disk scale lengths, and between two disk scale lengths
and the last measured point.
