In tablea1.dat, we present the WENSS selected candidate GRGs after removing sources identified as non-GRGs on basis of optical data. In tablea2.dat, we present the log of the spectroscopic observations of GRG andidates in our sample. In tablea3.dat, we present properties of the radio cores and the optical identifications of the spectroscopically observed giant radio sources, and of the confirmed giant sources B1144+352, B1245+676 and B1310+451. We provide the name of the radio source in IAU notation, the observation used to determine the radio core position and its flux density and the radio core position in right ascension and declination, respectively, in B1950.0 coordinates. The radio positions have been obtained by fitting a Gaussian in the radio map. We further provide the integrated flux density at 1.4GHz of the radio core, the position of the optical identification in right ascension and declination, respectively, in B1950.0 coordinates, obtained from fitting a Gaussian in the available optical image and the magnitude of the identification in the red (POSS-E) band of the Palomar survey. The magnitudes for sources weaker than 15.0 have been obtained from the APM catalogue and are estimated to be accurate to 0.5 mag. For brighter sources, we have measured the magnitudes directly from the digitized POSS-I frames using the photometric calibration for stars available from the STScI WWW-pages and through the getimage-2.0 plate retrieval software. Typical uncertainties in these values are estimated to be large, at least 1mag. In tablea4.dat, further radio properties of the sources in tablea3.dat. We present the integrated flux density of the source at 325MHz from the Westerbork Northern Sky Survey (WENSS) (unless stated otherwise), the integrated flux density at 1400MHz from the NVSS, the spectral index between 325 and 1400MHz, the redshift of the host galaxy, the angular size of the radio source in arcminutes, the resulting projected linear size in Mpc (using H_0=50km/s/Mpc, q0=0.5) and the radio luminosity at an emitted frequency of 325MHz.
