A graph is 1-planar if it can be embedded in the plane with at most one crossing per edge. A graph is outer-1-planar if it has an embedding in which every vertex is on the outer face and each edge has at most one crossing. We present a linear time algorithm to test whether a graph is outer-1-planar. The algorithm can be used to produce an outer-1 -planar embedding in linear time if it exists.
