French term or phrase: carré

This comes in a description of online marketing activities which include: "campagnes d’achat d’espaces multi-formats (bannières, méga-bannières, carrés, skyscrapers, ...)"
I'm ok with the other terms but can anyone help me with "carré"? I've seen the term "island" ad, not sure if this is the same.
Thanks!

I'm going to use "square" in my context as the document is international and there's such as range of different terms out there, I think this will be my safest option. Thanks to all!
