Latex Longtable Continued on Next Page

I changed your given code to solve the problem with the table head and foot of longtable in pgfplotstable. I kicked out the styling of the columns, to give it to you as homework (please read the documentation of pgfplotstable!).

To get rid of the first line (see result later) you can add an empty header. Please follow the advices in this question.

The complete MWE (including .dat file with package filecontents; see that I added some data after line 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0; marked changings with % <======):

and the result (first page):

and the second page:

With some changes on the first code of mine you can get the alignment you asked in the comment. Why I have to use && instead of & in the definition of the header I can't say. I guess that needs some deeper research in the code how the header is builded. Perhaps a question to the package maintainer ...

In the following MWE I leave out the filecontents part (copy it from the first code please) and see the marked changes:
