The distribution of moisture content in stacked tea leaves during processing significantly influences tea quality. Visualizing this moisture distribution is crucial for optimizing processing parameters. In this study, we utilized hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technology combined with machine learning algorithms to evaluate the moisture content and its distribution in the stacked tea leaves in West Lake Longjing and Tencha green tea products during the processing flow line. A spectral quantitative determination model was developed, achieving high accuracy (Rp2 >: 0.940) The model demonstrated strong generalization ability, allowing it to predict moisture content in both types of tea. Through hyperspectral imaging, we visualized moisture distribution in seven key processing steps and observed that moisture content was non-uniform, with the leaf tips and petioles having higher moisture levels than the leaf surface. This study offers a novel solution for real-time moisture monitoring of stacked tea leaves in tea production, ensuring consistent product quality. Future research could focus on refining model transfer techniques and exploring additional tea varieties to further enhance the generalization of the approach.
