Noise Maps around A/C
Hey, has anyone ever seen something like noise map which shows how much noise is produced by A/C while on the ground (taxi in and park with APU on) of course depending on the A/C type.
I am looking for any source of the subject which includes those 2 above.
I know noise maps of airports, noise maps during landing and taxing, but I cant find the last process, taxi in and park.

I'm not aware of any, having done 'noise' in a previous life. If they are available then the aircraft manufacturers should be able to offer help, when I was doing it noise levels were recorded from hand held/remote monitors for stand work, I can't recall any specific taxiway monitoring and recording.

Most (all?) aircraft manufacturers have some form of "Airplane Characteristics for Airport Planning" documentation which would normally contain a plot specific for an aircraft type showing noise levels measured at a given radius (60 metres?) 360 degrees around the aircraft. There may be two plots: one for ground idle and one for maximum thrust possible on brakes. It doesn't quite fit into what you ask for, but maybe it's a starting point?
