Given a set of
n
equal size and non-overlapping axis-aligned squares, we need to choose exactly one point in each square to make the area of a convex hull of the resulting point set as large as possible. Previous algorithm [10] on this problem gives an optimal algorithm with
O
(
n
3
) running time. In this paper, we propose an approximation algorithm which runs in
O
(
n
log
n
) time and gives a convex hull with area larger than the area of the optimal convex hull minus the area of one square.
