Airports use radar to monitor the planes in many locations. Planes carry a transponder that sends out certain information when hit with radar. This information tells the controller how high we are, the identifier of the plane and from this information they know the speed and capabilities of the aircraft.
There are portions of the country and world that do not have radar. Planes flying in bad weather will fly certain routes and have points where they will report their position once they reach that point.
While on the ground airplanes can be monitored through ground radar, but more commonly are monitored by visual means and holding points.
