So, I take it your problem is how to select the desired values from the original data structure. There are a number of ways this can be done using Select, Cases or Pick. Assuming the data looks like a list of (kx,ky,kz,energy} values,
Cases[data, {_,0,0,_}]
would give you all instances where ky=kz=0 and
Cases[data,_{a_,a_,0,_}
would give you all instances where kx=ky and kz = 0
