I forgot to properly normalize the map. The map should be normalized so that the integral flux (sum over intensity times solid angle) is 1. In that way, the total flux in the map is measured by the spectrum.

Note that we should do this normalization after loading. The best is thus to create a private method that loads the map, performs the normalization, and updates the cache. If this is done in one method we’re sure that the map and the cache are always compliant.
