This is the term most often used, however, it may be necessary to use "motorized".

automated/mobile scaffold tower
The most common term is "scaffold tower", but because the text mentions "vehicle" it implies automated as in mobile.

mobile elevated work platform
I think that the answerers so far have been neurolinguistically programmed to think that the word "scaffold" must be in there somewhere.
I happen to think not.
To me, the description sounds like a mobile elevating work platform. It says "vehículo motorizado" (not "andamio motorizado"). It is therefore clearly a vehicle.
It also says that it serves as "una plataforma volante" (literally a mobile/flying platform).
None of that sounds like scaffolding to me.
An aerial work platform (AWP), also known as an aerial device, elevating work platform (EWP), or mobile elevating work platform (MEWP) is a mechanical device used to provide temporary access for people or equipment to inaccessible areas, usually at height. There are distinct types of mechanized access platforms and the individual types may also be known as a "cherry picker" or a "scissor lift".
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerial_work_platform
Mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) can provide a safe way of working at height. They:
allow the worker to reach the task quickly and easily
have guard rails and toe boards which prevent a person falling
can be used in-doors or out
MEWPs include cherry pickers, scissor lifts and vehicle-mounted booms. These pages help you to:
choose the right MEWP for the job
identify and manage the risks involved with working from MEWPs

Sorry. My answer should have read "elevating" and not "elevated"
