You don't need cameras for that, they wouldn't work in lower visibility. Typically ground radar is used for this at large airports.

If the visibility is that low, wouldn't the airport be shut down?
Cameras are far cheaper than radar.

Not at all. Minimum visibility for takeoff is often 600ft and can be lower than that.
